There's a trail that's a must-visit when you're near Pettigrew (which is about halfway between Cass and Oark).
Although it's not quite a park-and-you're-here waterfall, the trail is an easy riverside adventure.

From the High Bank Canoe Access parking area, you'll need to head right on the road and cross the creek stream on your left. Follow the creek upstream until you've reached the featured falls.
This hike is surprisingly family-friendly for being a bushwhack.

With a GPS-friendly map and good hiking boots, just about anyone can take on this trail! The path only has an 88-ft. elevation change and takes .4-miles to reach the end.

During the summer the creek dries to nearly nothing, which doesn't make for a good waterfall excursion. A rainy fall or spring will make this trip worthwhile!
High Bank Twin Falls is quite the reward for such a low-key hike!
AllTrails/Allen Chesney
The towering falls are a little over 70-ft. high and empty into a lovely canyon pool. After a decent rain the falls create a stunning showcase of Arkansas' natural beauty. So, the next time you search waterfalls near me, you can remove High Banks from the list.

If you're up for a more strenuous adventure, take time to look into hiking the nearby Indian Creek Trail.

What are 3 hiking trails with waterfalls in Arkansas?

There is no shortage of hiking trails in Arkansas. After all, it’s the Natural State that delivers beauty at every turn. Some of the most beautiful aspects of the state can be witnessed on trails with waterfalls. And these are three of the most epic ones. The first is Cedar Falls Trail. This 1.9-mile out and back trail is located inside Petit Jean State Park and will lead to the most breathtaking 95-foot waterfall. The trail might be challenging in parts, but the rewards are worth it. The second hiking trail is the Magnolia Falls Trail. This is an easy 2-mile trail located inside the Ozark National Forest. The 26-foot-tall waterfall is a true hidden gem in Arkansas. Lastly, take the 2.2-mile out-and-back Kettle Falls Trail. Located near Eureka Springs, this trail will reveal one of Arkansas’ unique waterfalls. The flow comes through an opening in the limestone bluff and down into a plunge pool. This 46-foot waterfall is quite spectacular. And here are some more hiking trails with waterfalls in Arkansas. 

What are the best waterfall hikes in Arkansas?

By far, Arkansas has some of the best waterfall hikes in the country. Many of them are tucked inside our scenic state parks. Though it’s hard to narrow down the best, here are a few trails that are worth the hike. Pam’s Grotto Waterfall Trail is less than a mile out-and-back trail that is moderately challenging. It’s located in the Ozark National Forest, and you must hike this short trail to see the spectacular 37-foot-tall waterfall and grotto. Another epic waterfall hike is the Lost Valley Trail. It’s a 2.5-mile trail tucked inside the Buffalo National River near Ponca, and it ends with a stunning view of Eden Falls. The 37-foot-tall waterfall gently cascades over tiered rocks into an emerald plunge pool. Other trails that should be added to your list include Hemmed-In-Hollow and the Glory Hole Trails as both waterfalls are quite incredible.
