Enjoy Rewarding Views Without Breaking A Sweat Along Starlite Trail In Arkansas
Starlite Trail is an easy addition to your day outdoors around Eureka Springs. This breezy trail will reward hikers with gorgeous flora and stunning vista views all without needing to break a sweat! Let’s pack a picnic and bring the whole family along this low-key hike.
This easy stroll is perfect for an evening of winding down or anyone with a group of younger hikers. The trailhead is just south of Stateline Drive, near the Community Church.
The trail isn't paved but is well maintained and routinely mowed. The elevation gain for the total trail is only 200 feet so no need to worry about endless rock staircases here!
The primary loop of the trail was finished in 2016 and is about 1.4-miles long. During the summer you'll be rewarded with shaded canopies and trickling streams from the creek's nearby springs.
The forests surrounding Eureka Springs are simply stunning in the fall, including this area! Plan a visit around late October to see an explosion of fall foliage.
Springtime is the better time to stop and smell the wildflowers but you can also view a few during summer and fall.
There are two spots along the hike to get photo-worthy looks of the valley below. There's also a nice rock bench to meditate or to simply enjoy the view!
