Hike To This Beautiful Arkansas Waterfall And You’ll Probably Have It All To Yourself

Panther Bluff Falls is a hidden gem near the Saline River, perfect for a relaxing outdoor adventure.

Beloved by fishers and campers, the Saline River is a perfect setting for an outdoor adventure. One tucked away spot is the gorgeous Panther Bluff Falls.

One perfectly gorgeous place to sit and relax a while is at the rather tucked away Panther Bluff Falls.

This lovely paradise is located between Umpire and Dierks.

You may have missed this particular waterfall during your last trip to the Saline River.

Panther Bluff eventually flows into the Saline River. However, unless you're specifically looking the falls, it's unlikely you'd accidentally come across it.

Head to Dierks Lake to reach the falls.

The waterfall is on the northeast rim of the lake. To get the parking area on the side of the road, use these coordinates. Look for the 2.2 mile marker while you're on Blue Ridge Road. This lake also has a camping ground so it's okay if you'd like to spend a night or two in this beautiful area.

You won't need to spend the day hiking treacherous bluffs or bushwhacking for miles.

Little effort is needed to reach the falls since it's just a short trip from the road. Just mind the slippery rocks when hiking downhill.

Panther Bluff Falls will easily become your new favorite waterfall.

Which is saying something since Arkansas is filled with unbelievably stunning falls.
