Backpacking in the Ozarks

Have you ever wanted to try backpacking but don’t know where to start? Join Park Interpreter Ashley at the Ozark Highlands trailhead (behind the visitor center) where we will hike a short length of the trail and discover more about some of the basics of preparing for a backpacking adventure. We will hike 1 ½-miles, so be sure to wear good shoes and bring water.
