Buffalo River Trail, Weg in den Vereinigten Staaten
Buffalo River Trail is a hiking path in the Ozarks of Arkansas that stretches about 37 miles from Boxley Valley to Pruitt. The route follows along river banks and bluffs with multiple access points including Ponca, Steel Creek, and Erbie.
The region around Buffalo River shows traces of human use over many centuries, with historic structures and old pathways that speak to past times. The river itself has shaped the land over time, carving deep canyons and valleys that visitors see today.
The trail is free and accessible year-round with no permit or reservation needed. Hikers should bring water, snacks, and sturdy shoes since facilities are not available along the route, and some sections are narrow and rocky near steep drop-offs.
Along the route, remnants of old vehicles sit on the Old River Trail, remembering when families once moved through the region with horse-drawn wagons and later by car. These scattered artifacts offer an unexpected glimpse into how people once lived in this valley.
