We have been going up to Arkansas in the fall for about 5 years or so from Texas. One of my favorite rides is Ark 21. It is east of the Pig Trail. I liked it much better than 23. Make sure you check it out if time allows. Have done about every route mentioned. You can't go wrong in that area of the country.

All of 21 is great I’m sure, but which part is your favorite?

Bottom half below Kingston to Clarksville is my favorite stretch.

A big thank you to all suggestions!
Luckily all the establishments were just starting to re-open last week, so the traffic was next to none, but I could see were it would be terrible.
I printed all of the roads/maps suggested in case I lost cell signal, but then it rained every day we were there, LOL, but we were able to ride portions of 23, 21, 7 and made it through Eureka springs beaver dam area.
At one point we drove right by Cliff’s Place (looked like it had a killer view), but we were running from the rain trying to get some miles in before the torrential downpour’s, we didn’t make it of course😂.

Beaver damn and the lake.

Gettin Basted had excellent barbecue!



I will definatly make Arkansas an annual destination, probably just make it a last-minute trip so that I know what the weathers gonna do. We don’t mind riding in the rain, but if it’s raining when you leave, and raining the whole ride and raining on my way back, it gets old.

Thanks again for all the suggestions, i will be hitting all the spots I missed this trip, next time
