Arkansas has many beautiful parks and natural landmarks to explore, but there’s one in particular that simply cannot be missed. The hike up to this breathtaking point leads past incredible fall foliage and even a waterfall before taking you to one of the most scenic places in Arkansas.

Whitaker's Point, tucked away in the Ozarks, is one of the most iconic spots in Arkansas. Due to its unique shape, this rock overlooking scenic Buffalo River country is also called Hawksbill Crag.
