Swim Underneath The Falls Along The Kings River In Arkansas
We’re reaching the end of summer but that doesn’t mean we’re out of time for a few more swim trips. After all, Arkansas won’t cool down for at least another month. If you haven’t made the trip (or just need another excuse to go) it’s time to visit the Kings River Falls. This waterfall-fed pool is the perfect way to wrap up your summer adventures.

Kings River Falls feeds the turquoise pool found near the northern edge of the Ozark National Forest. The Kings River Natural Area has been owned by the Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission since 1979. Take advantage of the seasonal hunting, year-round photography, and gorgeous trail in addition to your planned swim trip.

Even if the waterfall isn't in full force, the natural pool beneath still offers some refreshing wading.

There's nothing more relaxing than having a waterfall massage!

Two distinct alcoves surround the pool, the shelter behind the main waterfall and another to left. There are plenty of nooks and crannies to explore during your swim.
