Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge, National wildlife refuge in southern Arkansas, United States.
The refuge encompasses 76,000 acres of wetlands at the confluence of the Saline and Ouachita Rivers, featuring lakes, creeks, and forests.
Established in 1975 as an environmental compensation for the creation of the Ouachita-Black Rivers Navigation Project and Felsenthal Lock and Dam.
The protected area contains over 200 Native American archaeological sites, including fishing camps, ceremonial plazas, and temple mounds from Caddo settlements.
Visitors require Access Permits and can utilize boat ramps, primitive campgrounds, fishing piers, three water trails, and two hiking trails throughout the refuge.
The refuge houses the federally-protected red-cockaded woodpecker and expands from 15,000 to 36,000 acres of water during flooding periods.
