It’s not often I am in Clarksville, Arkansas so finding this trail was such a treat!

My job has me in that area every other week for a while, so I went searching for some places to run.
The one on Spadra Creek is just beautiful!

I began at the trail head near the University of the Ozarks campus

right next to this sign.

The main trail is paved and very well lit, but there are lots of little paths going off to the side and down to the water.

Isn’t this a curious building? Does anyone know its history? I’d love to hear about it if you do!

It’s hard to run when you keep stopping to take photographs! 😉 
How pretty is this path thru the woods?

Dandelion puffs always make me smile!


A charming old iron bridge marks the other end of the trail.

Take a look at the views on either side.

Isn’t it lovely?

There are glimpses of the creek throughout the route.


A few streets that have to be crossed to complete the 1.7 miles.

Honestly, that is a negative for me, but traffic stopped quickly and I never felt in danger.

How cute is this bicycle shop?

Spadra Creek Trail is a wonderful place to spend an evening!
Where have you been lately?
