Petit Jean Mountain Attractions and Events in Arkansas

Our biggest attraction is our lack of distractions.   

Come discover Petit Jean Mountain, one of Arkansas’ most beloved nature retreats.

Named after a 300-year-old legend and serving as the home of Arkansas' first state park, Petit Jean Mountain gives visitors breathtaking views, enchanting woodland trails, historic spots and natural beauty. Over time nature has formed many wonders that bring visitors to its peak. A few “can’t miss” attractions are the bluffs, Cedar Falls, Cedar Creek Canyon, Turtle Rocks and Seven Hollows.

Take a trail ride through the beautiful scenery at the nearby Petting Zoo and Trail Rides, located on Jones Lane.

Venture out to see this collection of privately owned classic vehicles located right here on Petit Jean Mountain.
