I grew up in Arkansas…and here is some things I remember from Hot Springs.


Take in a “Thermal Bath” go downtown and tour historic bathhouse.

Also check out Crystal falls water park/ Magic Springs.

There is a lot of hiking trails too a good one that I remember is
Whittington Park Trail for a peaceful walks; or check out Garvan Woodland botanical gardens.

There use to be an Alligator Farm there too…. don’t know if it still is open or not.

I grew up in Arkansas and my husband and I spent a couple days in Hot Springs on our honeymoon. We LOVED the Garvan Woodland Gardens!! And the Lookout Tower was awesome too!
