It has come time to recognize that Arkansans are some of the luckiest people on the planet. We live in the Natural State, and no state in the union has a more appropriate nickname. Living here comes with the privilege of having little slices of heaven sprinkled all over our state. One of those slices of heaven is Mount Nebo State Park, and there’s no better time to visit than when the leaves are at peak color and the campfire is as cozy as it gets.

You’ll find Mount Nebo State Park at 16728 State Highway 155 in Dardanelle. Directions are here.

Even from afar, Mount Nebo looks like it might be heaven.
