Favorite Scenic Routes To Drive In Northwest Arkansas

Every Arkansas community has been affected by COVID-19, and McLarty Daniel CDJR Bentonville takes the COVID-19 pandemic seriously and abides by regulated safety and health guidelines to keep everyone as healthy and safe. Part of those safety guidelines is following along with social distancing. However, social distancing can be challenging when you have an active family lifestyle. 

We at McLarty Daniel want to do our part for all of our communities, so we created a guide of scenic drives to take to help alleviate the hum-drum boredom of being cooped up in the house! Northwest Arkansas offers so much scenic beauty and Southern charm that is simply breathtaking, so McLarty Daniel wanted to share our appreciation for the Arkansas landscape with our friends and customers. 

The Boston Mountains Scenic Loop

Tired of being cooped up in the house? Then pile the family in the car and drive the Boston Mountains Scenic Loop, otherwise known as U.S. Highway 71.  Boston Mountains Scenic Loop was once a stagecoach route in the mid 19th century. This gorgeous scenic drive will take you through several twists and turns through pretty mountain towns and farms. Just west of U.S. 71 is I-49, it stretches over and above spectacular valleys and flowing streams. Both of these routes offer plenty of areas to stop for drivers to take photographs or even hike into the mountains.

Pig Trail Scenic Byway

This scenic byway is a popular route for Razorback fans and has a strong connection to the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville for Razorback sports. This is another beautiful way through the Boston Mountains, which also crosses the Mulberry River. Take Ark. 23 from the south boundary of the Ozark National Forest to its intersection with Ark. 16 at Brashears to get the best views out of this 19-mile drive. 

NATIONAL SCENIC 7 BYWAY

The state’s first state-designated scenic byway travels through four of the state’s varied geographical regions. The highway begins near El Dorado, Arkansas, rolls into Hot Springs through the Arkansas River Valley  then takes you up into the Ozark Mountains to Harrison, Arkansas. 

Even though we are experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic and plentiful uncertainty right now, we are here for our customers and community. We are so proud to be located in such a beautiful region of the country that offers such spectacular landscapes to see. We hope this fun guide helps our customers and your families battle daily boredom. From your friends at McLarty Daniel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Bentonville, have a safe and wonderful day!
