One scenic vista follows another as SR 7 winds through the Arkansas Ozarks, a rugged region characterized by flat-topped mountains and valleys created by rushing streams. The Buffalo National River - so designated to preserve the natural environment - is overarched in spots by massive sandstone bluffs. The clear water offers great fishing for bass, perch and catfish.
