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.
We’re all in favor for stunning waterfall hikes but sometimes the ones you can see from your car make the best family memories. Within the McIlroy State Game Management Area in Huntsville resides three gorgeous falls that take under a mile of hiking to reach. In just a few short drives you’ll see them all.
Today's feature is a little different than just one trail with three waterfalls but we promise it's absolutely worth the trip.
The parking for this one is the same place you'd park for a nearby trail, the Kings River Overlook. If you want to add a bit more adventure to your day we do recommend taking the 1.2-mile overlook trail, too.

This jaw-dropping waterfall takes under a mile to reach.
The parking for this one overshoots the falls by about a tenth of a mile. So after you park you'll need to follow the road back just a little until you see the creek. For more details on reaching all of these falls we highly recommend reading over Rick’s Hiking Blog.
We would love to see your photos of all three of these falls in our Facebook Group, Arkansas Nature Lovers. You should join for your chance to be featured and to discover why there’s nothing better than Arkansas’ stunning nature.
