A pristine slice of the Ozarks, Dogwood Canyon Nature Park encompasses over 4,000 hectares (10,000 acres) of rugged landscapes offering visitors seemingly endless opportunities for fishing, hiking, and biking. One of the region's major year-round recreational destinations, the park offers guided tram and Segway tours of a scenic canyon noted for its waterfalls and caves. You can also explore this wildlife-rich area at your own pace by riding the trails on your own or a rented bicycle. Or, combine a walk and a bike ride with self-guided trout fishing by purchasing an "adventure pass." Book your activities in advance by phone; the park charges an admission fee even if you enter on foot or bring your own bicycle. Put Dogwood Canyon Nature Park at the forefront of your travel plans using our Lampe journey app.

  • We loved visiting this place and had a really great overall experience, but be aware that there is no water offered along the trail unless you’ve got cash. That would have been great to know before we got over a mile in. Not much info was provided. We rented bikes, but it was all pretty pricey. The views are incredible and I think it’s worth the expense at least once. Everything is wonderfully well kept. That alone is worth seeing. Going here gives you such an appreciation for nature and the outdoors. I highly recommend it!
  • A 3.8 mile one way trail (with sites branching off of it) that I was able to job 2.2 miles into before it was getting close to closing time. Easily the best nature trail I've ever been on. I will make it back here one day to finish the trail. Still full of incredible views. Waterfalls what seems like every 100 yards, eagles overhead, trail following the river, and if you can make it to the end there's an overlook for bison. Drove 2 hours and jogged 4 miles, worth it!
