Stroll around bathouse row
Bathhouse Row was once the main attraction at Hot Springs, and it’s still worth a visit today. Take a dip at one of the eight real bathhouses scattered along the street, including historic ones that date back to the 1800s. If you don’t feel like a soak, you’ll still find plenty to do amidst the eye-catching architecture, local boutiques, and unique restaurants.
Hike Hot Springs National Park
Walking paths have long been a part of Hot Springs National Park and the preceding Hot Springs Reservation. Today those walking paths form the base of the park’s trail system. There are two concentrated areas of hiking trails within the park, the Hot Springs and North Mountain Trails and the West Mountain Trails. Both of these areas are composed of relatively short, interconnected trails. The Sunset Trail is a longer trail that travels through more remote areas of the park.
Walk the Grande Promenade
The Hot Springs National Park Grand Promenade runs along behind Bath House Row, a half-mile long, with fantastic views of downtown Hot Springs. From Reserve Street to Fountain Street, the paved trail will take visitors along sites such as the Arlington Lawn, quartz veins in the sandstone, and tufa cliffs. Visitors won’t want to miss the hot springs cascade as it surges from the mountain. This historic brick promenade was a project funded by the PWA in 1933.
Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort
Formerly known as Oaklawn Park Race Track, Oaklawn has been one of the premiere Thoroughbred racetracks in the country since 1904. It is home to The Racing Festival of the South. The new casino and hotel are open seven days a week, year-round. The Casino offers Vegas-style action in a friendly, casual atmosphere with hundreds of the newest reel games, live table games like blackjack, roulette, and Craps, as well as a high limits area. Restaurants and bars also offer a fun time with food, drinks and live music. Oaklawn also features legendary singers and entertainers throughout the year.
Anthony Chapel Complex
Part of Garvan Woodland Gardens, the Anthony Chapel Complex gives the feeling of being outdoors, with its open-beam structure and great pine columns. Tucked in among a wooded landscape of giant pines and oak trees, it’s a gorgeous destination for weddings, concerts, memorials, and christening services. Floor to ceiling glass walls showcase the impressive gardens surrounding the chapel. Numerous skylights provide dappling light throughout the structure. The chapel is open during regular business hours unless rented for a private wedding or event.
Hike the Ouachita National Forest
If you prefer to get off the beaten path a little bit, head further outside town to Ouachita National Forest. There you’ll find more than 1.8 million acres to explore by foot, horseback, mountain bike, or ATV. Whether you want an easy hike on a well-maintained nature trail or a challenging backcountry adventure, you’ll find it in Ouachita National Forest.
