As the Arkansas River journeys through 34,000-acre Lake Dardanelle, it continually shapes the land and creates opportunities for outdoor recreation. Surrounded by the beautiful Ouachita Mountains to the south and the Ozarks to the north, Lake Dardanelle offers some of the finest fishing and boating in Arkansas. This state park provides picnicking, camping, boat launching, nature study, and a variety of family activities at two areas, one each on the Russellville and Dardanelle sides of the lake. The park also offers opportunity to reflect on the past as a certified site on the Trail of Tears National Historic Trail.
