Highlights:

Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area (HSPCA) is the largest state park in Arkansas, covering over 12,000 acres in Benton County. It is located along the southern shore of Beaver Lake, near Rogers, Arkansas. The park is known for its diverse ecosystems, including upland forests, streams, limestone bluffs, and caves.  The park has over 50 miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails, including the Pigeon Roost Trail, Hidden Diversity Trail, and Shaddox Hollow Trail.

The Lost Bridge Hiking Trail is located at Beaver Lake State Park within the Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area (HSPCA). The trail starts just before you reach the boat docks at Beaver Lake. (The parking area for the trailhead is located on the right with steps ascending/descending in each direction.) The Lost Bridge Hiking Trail wanders along the shores of Beaver Lake with excellent views across the water and to the Ozark mountains in the distance and eventually climbs up toward the entrance gate that grants access to the boat docks at Beaver Lake.
