5 days in Hot Springs Itinerary

Set deep in the Ouachita Mountains, the city of Hot Springs almost completely surrounds the national park of the same name.

Discover out-of-the-way places like Talimena Scenic Dr and Museum Of Discovery. Change things up with these side-trips from Hot Springs: Queen Wilhelmina State Park (in Mena), Esse Purse Museum & Store (in Little Rock) and Mount Magazine State Park (in Paris). And it doesn't end there: take in nature's colorful creations at Garvan Woodland Gardens, tour the pleasant surroundings at Anthony Chapel, look for gifts at Bathhouse Soapery, and take a peaceful walk through Ouachita National Forest.
