Arkansas never ceases to amaze with its abundance of natural beauty. From waterfalls to picturesque overlooks to majestic mountains to rivers, lakes, and springs, the natural wonders are endless. And since we can’t get enough of these gorgeous places, here’s one more that you are guaranteed to love. The Blue Spring Heritage Center is home to Blue Spring, the most beautiful lagoon in the state. This bottomless spring in Eureka Springs features over 38 million gallons of crystal-clear, turquoise water flowing to it daily. And best of all, you can easily walk to this unique natural wonder in Arkansas to admire its tremendous beauty.

Welcome to the Blue Spring Heritage Center, a 33-acre historic site featuring botanical gardens as well as the bottomless Blue Spring.

The gorgeous site was considered sacred grounds by the Native Americans who used it as a trading post. It eventually became an important stopping point during the Trail of Tears.

Since 1948, the area has served as a tourist attraction in Eureka Springs, attracting thousands of visitors between March and November when it is open.

As the largest spring in Northwest Arkansas, it is filled with trout and the water flows over to the White River.

This beautiful lagoon is easily accessible to all visitors. You can practically walk right to the edge of the lagoon, and there is also an area where you can place your hands or feet inside to feel the cool 54 degrees spring water.

Moreover, the turquoise lagoon is surrounded with pretty wildflowers planted inside a barrier wall. There’s no doubt that you’ll be awe-struck by all the beauty that surrounds you.

A wooden walkway provides access to other areas in the garden, where you can admire more of the lagoon as well as more of the gorgeous native wildflowers.

For a place to rest, stop by the charming gazebo that overlooks the lagoon.

Aside from the lagoon and garden, you’ll encounter what’s left of an old mill that was powered by the spring.

Additionally, there is a bluff shelter that was used by the Native Americans.

After an archaeological dig, artifacts that were left behind were found in the area and can be viewed inside the Heritage Center.

Be sure to visit the center to learn all about the history as well as the bottomless turquoise lagoon. There is also a cool short historic film about the cave dive of the spring.

The Heritage Center hosts weddings as well as various events during the year.

But most importantly, this stunning natural wonder is accessible to all who want to visit.
