  1. 3.5 Pivot Rock and Natural Bridge (301 reviews)
    - Interesting
    Hiking Trails • Geologic Formations
    Pivot Rock and Natural Bridge image
    This interesting area of rock formations is accessed through the gift shop with a $6 admission price. The trail is easy (a slight grade in some areas) & makes a loop back to the starting point. We enjoyed our short walk in the woods & took lots of photos of the natural rock walls & odd rock formations along the way. I was disappointed that the gift shop had so little of its own merchandise. I really wanted some postcards, but all they had of their own were magnets. Be aware that the road in, Pivot Rock Rd., is narrow & curvy. We questioned if we were going the right way more than once.

  2. 3.5 Avatar Crystal Mine (27 reviews)
    - Not bad, but crystals are on the smaller side...
    Tuesday: Spent 2-3 hours Geologic Formations • Mines
    Avatar Crystal Mine image
    We had a pretty good time hunting in the mine but found only small crystals here. According to "Dave" who was watching the mine while the main guys were in town at a festival said that was the norm at Arrowhead. Considering the fee (20 bucks) we felt good about the quality and quantity we found. Just a bit disappointed that we didn't find much that was larger than about 1/4" in width. All in all fun, not a bad day. Warning though for drivers of small cars... the road in is rough and I did use 4wd going in. Pretty deep ruts so be careful not to get high centered. See more..
  3. 4.0 Crystal Vista (21 reviews)
    - Great do it yourself
    Spent More than 3 hours Geologic Formations
    Crystal Vista image
    Crystal vista was a nice dig. The uphill hike was not bad although we went by the mine site before turning hund as it is overgrown after 20 yrs inactive. We tried the rock face and were rewarded with 2 small pockets. Another nice gentleman was up the hill and really knew what he was doing, came ot with some very nice clusters. Not for the faint of heart but great experience. See more..

    Natural Dam Falls image
    We were there on a warm day in January. Beautiful trails. in the Ozark National Forest. The natural dam is a rock ledge. The whole creek area (Lee Creek) is full of the rock ledges. You can walk upstream and see another smaller falls. Walk downstream and see the big bend and some huge cliff rocks. See more..

    - Spring and autumn beauty
    Hiking Trails • Geologic Formations • Waterfalls
    Beautiful area, but enjoyed in fall and early spring due to the thick tree canopy and the summertime heat. Less chance of meeting snakes, too! See more..
