Trail Overview
This gravel road travels the south side of Poteau Mountain. It begins at a fork in the road if going east and ends at a railroad track. Highway 28 is just past the tracks. The gravel road has shallow water crossings and beautiful views. This winding forest road is fun to drive as it takes you out of the Ouachita National Forest and to asphalt.
Difficulty
Shallow water crossings and loose gravel make up this forest road. Can have mud sections if wet.
