Discover the Serenity of Magnolia Falls

Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car, you can reach Magnolia Falls from the main roads in Ozark National Forest. Begin your journey on Highway 16 East. After approximately 10 miles, turn onto County Road 6, also known as the 'Magnolia Falls Road'. Continue on this road for about 5 miles, following the signs for Magnolia Falls. The road is gravel but well-maintained. Park your vehicle at the designated parking area near the trailhead. From there, it's a short hike of about 0.5 miles on a marked trail to reach the falls.

• Public Transportation + Hiking

  For those relying on public transport, you can take a bus service to the nearest town, which is Deer, AR. Once in Deer, you will need to arrange for a taxi or rideshare service to get to Highway 16. From there, you can follow the same directions as if you were driving. Note that the closest public transportation options may require prior arrangements, as services can be limited. After arriving at the parking area, you'll need to hike approximately 0.5 miles to the falls.

• Biking

  If you prefer biking, you can use the same route as the car directions. Take Highway 16 East and then turn onto County Road 6. Enjoy the scenic ride, but be prepared for some gravel sections. It is roughly a 5-mile bike ride to the falls from Highway 16. Once you reach the parking area, secure your bike and hike the remaining 0.5 miles to the falls on the marked trail.
