The trails are popular with horseback riders and are as wide as sidewalks most of the time. In most places and the footing is good. A small percentage of the trail is made up of loose rock that can be bad for a weak ankle.

My only complaint is that the map I have is not accurate and the markers on the trees don't lend much confidence. Today I wound up walking an extra two hours because of a wrong turn. Looking at the Internet maps, I still can't find the path I was walking or the fenced meadows. In one spot the trail went through a chained gate.

We sit on over 400 beautiful acres with tall rock faced bluffs, open pastures, and include more than a mile of scenic river front. Arlington offers activities like swimming, fishing, hiking, horseshoes, a playground, and recreation room. Our facilities are outstanding with two large bath houses, laundry room, large pool with sun deck, 99 level pull thru RV sites with water, sewer, 20/30/50 amp electric, and 25 river front tent sites. Also available is a boat ramp, camp store, pavilion, stables for horse boarding, and a RV dump station. Pets are Welcome. We are close to many natural attractions such as Duerson Slide, Gollahon Spring, Kaintuck Trail, and Poole Hollow. There are just too many to name. Arlington is also within a half hour of Ft. Leonard Wood Army Base, Univerisity of Missouri-Rolla, and many local wineries. Arlington has something for everyone and we are located on the famous Route 66, where so many American dreams have been born. Hope to see ...
