Ozark Highlands Trail
is a premier long-distance hiking trail crossing 165 miles of Ozark
National Forest in Arkansas from Lake Fort Smith S.P. to the Buffalo
National River. Most of the trail is on National Forest land but some
portions cross private property. Please respect landowners by not trespassing.
Saddle or pack animals are not allowed on any part of the OHT. The trail
is indicated with a 2x6" white blaze and marked every mile by a
flexible brown mileage post (the sequence increases eastward). Two blazes,
one on top of the other, indicate a prompt change in direction. Major
side trails are marked with a blue blaze.
