Cave of Spanish Gold/Seven Hollows Trail/Parkin Archeological St. Pk./Bald Knob National Wildlife Refuge #605

ATV1 - MAIN

Description

Inside a cave between Gravette and Sulphur Springs in northwest Arkansas there's a fascinating legend of hidden gold left by Spanish Conquistadors of long ago. The Seven Hollows Trail at Petit Jean State Park offers a natural arch and a grotto with a waterfall. Parkin Archeological State Park near Forrest City is where "history" began in Arkansas -written evidence provides documentation of events and a Native American village (1000 ? 1550 A.D.) which the Hernando de Soto expedition visited in 1541. Once a rice farm, the Bald Knob NWR is now a migratory mecca for both ducks and geese.
