Stepping Stone Falls

There’s a place where the Flint River becomes Mott Lake. Where the ducks swim and the fishing is good. It’s Stepping Stone Falls, one of the most scenic locations in Mid-Michigan. Make your way to the Flint River Bike Path, try your luck with the bluegill and bass or simply while away the good part of a day at our picnic grounds. On summer nights, change your view and enjoy the trails, stargaze and watch as multicolored lights illuminate the falls. However you like to unwind, Stepping Stone Falls is the perfect place to do it.

 

Huckleberry Railroad

In the early 1990s, Fossil Flats trail was built. At the time it was about a five mile loop accessible from two trailheads in Camping Area A of the park. Over the years, improvements have been made to the trail bringing it up to more than six miles in length. It has been the home of the Northwest Arkansas Mountain Bike Championships and Ozark Mountain Bike Festival for the past 28 years.
