The Ouachita Trail is known for long, rolling mountain ridges, quiet forest, big views, and solitude that keeps pulling hikers and backpackers back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow long is the trail?\u003cbr\u003eThe Ouachita National Recreation Trail is about 223 miles from Talimena State Park in Oklahoma to Pinnacle Mountain State Park in Arkansas. The U.S. Forest Service notes 192 miles within the national forest, plus roughly 32 additional miles extending east to Pinnacle Mountain State Park.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat’s the altitude?\u003cbr\u003eThe trail reaches a high point of about 2,600 feet on Rich Mountain near the Arkansas-Oklahoma state line, and drops to roughly 300 feet near its eastern end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere is it located?\u003cbr\u003eThe trail runs through the Ouachita Mountains of Oklahoma and Arkansas, beginning at Talimena State Park and continuing east to Pinnacle Mountain State Park near Little Rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen’s the best time of year to go?\u003cbr\u003eEarly spring and late autumn are generally considered the best seasons. Because of the southern climate, winter can also be a good hiking window, while midsummer is often hot and can bring scarcer water sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat’s something unique about the trail?\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most distinctive things about the Ouachita Trail is its solitude. It follows long ridge systems across the Ouachita Mountains and is widely appreciated for its quiet backcountry feel, with relatively few towns and road crossings compared with many other long trails.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Topofirma","offers":[{"title":"Large","offer_id":48048845422846,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":48048845455614,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Small","offer_id":48048845488382,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Small X-Mas Ornament","offer_id":48048853582078,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/9552\/7166\/files\/IMG_1053.jpg?v=1775774116","url":"https:\/\/topofirma.com\/products\/ouachita-national-recreational-trail","provider":"Topofirma","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
