Recreational opportunities abound in the western coverage area with 80 trail miles from Talimena State Park to the Turner Gap Shelter. There are also hundreds of miles of multi-use trails in and around the Winding Stair Mountain Recreation Area.

A majority of this section follows Winding Stair and Rich Mountain before dropping into the Ouachita River Valley and then following another ridgeline to Turner Gap Shelter. Views of the Ouachita & Kiamichi River Valleys are nearly unlimited from the highest peaks in the Ouachitas. Within the coverage area, you’ll also find recreational opportunities in Ouachita National Forest, Upper Kiamichi River & Black Fork Mountain Wilderness Areas, Winding Stair Recreation Area, Talimena Scenic Byway, and Queen Wilhelmina State Park.
