Loop Trails (No Backtracking) in Arkansas

Arkansas has 34 trails with a loop route in this directory, across 19 cities and towns — Rogers, Bella Vista, Little Rock, Hot Springs National Park and 15 more. Start and finish at the same trailhead: a known distance, no backtracking and no car shuttle.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
