Things to See & Do

There are lots of great thing to see and do here in, and around Eureka Springs. Attractions, outdoors, lakes for boating, fishing and swimming, parks, horse back rides, canoeing and lots more! I put together this list of all Eureka Springs has to offer just for you!

Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge

The largest animal refuge in the world, they rescue! Just seven miles south of Eureka Springs on Hwy 23 is this really neat place called Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge. They rescue exotic cats nationwide. They have lions, tigers, bears, cougars and other wild animals that you can see, there are even some you can pet!

Eureka Springs & North Arkansas Railway

The train is the best. You can ride a real train from over a hundred years ago, smash pennies and hear a real life train conductor tell us all about how things used to be BEFORE CARS.Eureka Springs vacation photos

The Great Passion Play

We sat on the very first row in the very middle of The Great Passion Play. I watched the whole thing and never got bored once. There were lots of animals and people and stuff moving all the time.

Eagle Watch

There is the Eagle Watch in January that I sometimes like to go see. Talk about a lot of eagles!

Inspiration Point

When Dad and I went looking for old stuff for the house we stopped at Inspiration Point Antique Mall. Here is the coolest overlook that I could see for a long way.

Exploring Caves

In Eureka Springs there are two real neat caves close. Onyx cave is less than 10 miles from downtown and Cosmic cavern is a really big cave less than 15 miles away.
