Songbird Trail
A half-mile Forest Service loop inside Watercress Recreation Area: past Watercress Spring, up a hillside to Civil War earthworks overlooking the Current River, and by a small cave in a rocky bank.
Trails to Visit in the Ozarks
Trailheads and trail systems in the guide, from half mile spring loops to long ridge walks, with distances and access as the land managers publish them.
Miller Community Lake
A small, quiet conservation lake east of Van Buren with a concrete ramp for electric-motor boats, a mile-long trail around the water, picnic areas at two parking lots, and bass, bluegill, catfish, and redear sunfish.
Peck Ranch Conservation Area
Missouri's elk country: a roughly 23,000-acre conservation area near Winona with a self-guided elk viewing driving tour that starts at the area office, a viewing deck over a beaver pond, primitive camping, Ozark Trail miles, and four natural areas, at the end of about seven miles of gravel road.
Pinewoods Lake Recreation Area
A 31-acre Forest Service fishing lake just off Highway 60 west of Ellsinore, with a barrier-free floating pier, a single-lane concrete ramp for electric-motor boats, a flat 1.3-mile trail around the water, and a picnic pavilion that holds groups of up to 75.
Tunnel Bluff Woods Natural Area
A 288-acre natural area on the lower Current River with old-growth sycamore bottomland and a natural dolomite arch in the east-bank bluff, reached on foot from a signed pull-off on Forest Service Road 3140 west of Grandin, or by floating across from Gooseneck.
Greer Spring
Missouri's second largest spring bursts from a cave mouth and a boiling stream bed at the bottom of a wooded ravine, reached by a 0.9-mile trail off Highway 19, then runs 1.25 miles to double the Eleven Point River.
