Hiking at Petit Jean and Mt. Nebo State Parks

Hiking is one of our favorite things to do, especially this time of year when the leaves are so beautiful. So last Saturday, November 1st we headed down to Petit Jean State Park around 7:00 and were on the trials by 9:30. The first trial we did was Ceder Fall, which is my favorite. Here are some pictures along the trail.

















But at the end is a.... Waterfall!!!!



The second trail we went on is called the Ceder Creek Trail that goes above the waterfall.





This was my favorite spot-- Definitely an SSS (Super Scenic Spot -- book by Tim Ernst -Hiking in Arkansas)


Then we headed to Mt. Nebo which is about 30 minutes away, this was our first time here and we hiked around the top of the mountain.

We were surprised to find a pressed penny machine. We have collected these cheap souvenirs since we started dating.


Watched a beautiful sunset.

Then stopped in Russelville and ate at Stoby's Restaurant-- they are known for the cheese dip but don't forget to blow the real train whistle if you ever have a chance to go.
