About Goat Rock Trail
This trail offers wide views over the Ouachita Mountains and the recharge zone that feeds the park's thermal springs. The path begins just south of the North Mountain Overlook parking area, which has limited spaces, so arriving early helps. It also connects with the Gulpha Gorge Trail, giving a route up from the campground.
