I am a nature lover and self-proclaimed foodie wrapped in one package. In my previous life, I was an Accountant, but numbers were boring and writing is the only thing that fuels my soul. So, I write because it's my freedom...it brings me joy. When I'm not writing dope articles for OnlyInYourState, I am writing and editing articles for my online blog on Medium.com. Or, when I get the chance, I am off on a trip with my family chasing waterfalls, or simply exploring the great outdoors. My mantra is to always find the best part of every day and bask in it.
If you’re an avid OnlyInYourState reader, you’ll know that we love to explore the great outdoors. In fact, we have covered so many hiking trails in Arkansas that we’ve lost count. However, most of those trails were short and sweet and tucked inside the enchanting Ozarks or the beautiful Ouachita Mountains. But today, we’ve chosen to feature the Delta Heritage Trail near West Helena, which meanders for over 40 miles through the Mississippi Alluvial Plain (aka the Delta). Read on to discover why we believe this historical hiking trail in Arkansas is arguably one of the most unique trail systems in the state. And chances are, you’ll want to explore it for yourself.
