Mount Magazine Trail Runs at Mount Magazine State Park

Mount Magazine is Arkansas’ ‘island in the sky’—and a trail run here means ridge-top cruising with big overlooks down to the Arkansas River Valley. It’s the kind of race that doubles as a scenic tour, especially when spring green starts to pop.Plan a full day at the park: run your distance, then take in the visitor center, picnic at the overlooks, and stay for sunset when the cliffs glow.
