Arkansas Hot Springs National Park

The welcome board says it all and you will feel it driving along green vistas surrounding beautiful mountains. Visit this place for a relaxing spa vacation getaway midst the beautiful Quachita mountains. 
 
Rejuvenating natural thermal water at heritage bath houses, beautiful hiking trails and treasures of the crystal mines make it a great place to visit.
We visited the park in month of December driving up from Texas to Arkansas. Visited Lake Quachita national park for early morning hike and thereafter on return treated ourselves to a rejuvenating spa at Quapaw Bath House. Later in the evening, visited Garman Woodland Gardens and enjoyed an evening with holiday lights.
 
 
 
Following day, visited hot springs mountain tower and enjoyed beaautiful aerial views of the city. Later, got lucky at Jim Coleman's crystal mines.       Erueka.!! we did find few crystals ;-p.
This was  a good long weekend getaway trip and the mountains and drive was equally beautiful in Winters as it is around the Summer and Fall times of the year.
