I highly recommend this trail! We took our dogs on our weekend getaway in Hot Springs and we loved it. There’s plenty of shade and benches to seat at to just watch nature.

The address that Google took us to was indeed along the trail, and we could park on a paved area across the roadway from the trail, but a public park with public parking spots wes available about 1/3 miles up the trail. The trail was scenic and well maintained right down to Downtown Hot Springs.

Really fun especially with electric bikes. Makes any of the moderate hills on the trail really easy to cover. Super pretty creek runs alongside the trail and you can rent kayaks at one end.
