Overview

Arkansas Highway 7 — Scenic 7 Byway.

AR-7 threads north-south through the Ouachita and Ozark mountains — Arkansas's answer to the Blue Ridge Parkway, but without the crowds. From Hot Springs it climbs over Ouachita ridges to Mount Magazine (the state's highest peak), passes through Buffalo National River country, and finishes near Harrison through the deepest Ozark valleys in the state. A 280-mile ribbon of two-lane perfection.
