Arkansas native, Carol Ann Carson, has written for OnlyInYourState for three years now. She resides in Western Arkansas' Mountain Frontier but calls NWA home as well. The graduate of University of Arkansas - Fort Smith, Carol Ann earned her B.A. in English and will soon be pursing her M.A. in Library Science. She loves exploring the trails around the Buffalo National River and has yet to find a waterfall that wasn't her favorite.
Some of the Natural State’s beautiful waterfalls require a lengthy (but well worth it) trek or a bushwhack off the beaten path, but not today’s fall! Devil’s Den, perhaps the most beloved state park in Arkansas, has quite the treat. Take the family along this trail to walk behind a waterfall.
Exploring Devil's Den is a rite of passage for most Arkansans.
You may not find it in writing but a camping trip was pretty much required if you grew up in Arkansas. For any out-of-stater, you can visit the park at 11333 AR-74, West Fork, AR 72774.
Although just about every waterfall can be one you walk behind, our favorite is along the Devil's Den Trail.
The 1.3-mile loop is perfect for families, or anyone that enjoys a pleasant hike through the woods. It's best to plan this trip a day or two after a good rain to make sure the waterfall is in full force.
Every age can relish in this fall's perfect placement and enjoyable hike.
