After heading north and passing Mountain Home (which has plenty of fun stops from trails to wineries), the route turns to Bull Shoals Dam. Be aware that camping and fishing around the lake and the White River is nearly irresistible.
There are a couple of spots along the way if you need a break to refuel.

After Bull Shoals the route turns southward to Yellville. Here you'll find Blacksheep BBQ, which is a pretty darn delicious stop for lunch.

This scenic loop will take you through the lower district of the Buffalo National River, near the Buffalo Point Campground. You could stay a night or two along the river or just stop for dessert with a view at the Buffalo Point Restaurant.
Push Mountain Road is such an inspiring trip regardless of how long you take to complete the loop.
