TROUT FISHING
Bring your own boat or reserve a fishing trip from our guides who are the best around and test your rod against the mighty rainbow trout. The Mt Olive river access is a destination for many anglers and is stocked regularly so up and downriver you're sure to find the catch of a lifetime. Some of the best fishin' anywhere!
TRAILS
Explore thousands of miles of the Ozark Highlands Trail (one of the premier, long-distance hiking trails in the United States), the Ozark-St Francis Sylamore Ranger District Trails, or Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission trails. Fall through Spring are the peak seasons for these trails. They're all close!
MOUNTAIN BIKING
The Syllamo Mountain Bike Trails are an IMBA Epic designated, 50+ mile network of the most challenging yet rewarding trails in the region surrounded by an awe-inspiring landscape. Unlike many mountain bike trails that have a limited area for trail construction, the Syllamo Mountain Bike Trails stretch over thousands of acres of the Ozark National Forest, and offer frequently changing scenery with views of the peaceful White River & Sylamore Creek Valley, and the lush but rocky Ozark Mountains.
MOTORCYCLING
There are so many great roads to ride in Arkansas because well, our roads are curvy! One of the Top Ten is Arkansas Hwy 9 from Allison to Melbourne. There are spectacular views and lots of twists. Mountain View hosts the Mountains, Music and Motorcycles festival each year. Bring your motorcycle and make Mt Olive Mercantile your riding hub.
