Around Northwest Arkansas, there are some fun places to take your kids where they can participate in educational activities, learn new skills, meet new friends, and have a fun time. Check out these great places where your kids are bound to have a blast.
1. Ozark Mountain Zip Lines at Eureka Springs
Zipline Canopy Tours first started in Costa Rica as a way for people to experience the plants and animals that live up in the tree canopies. The Ozarks has its own unique plant and animal life that enjoy life high above the ground, so it only makes sense to put up a zip line so people can enjoy what this area has to offer.
The zip line tours are a guided adventure from treetop to treetop, designed to show off the natural beauty high above the ground as guests learn how to glide effortlessly along suspended steel cables. The company has experience building zip lines throughout the United States as well as Central America, and operate on a safety-first principle to ensure the construction of the zip lines is sound and that the guides are expertly trained.
Ozark Mountain Zip Lines offers single and group rates, special organizational discounts, and are open all year. For ticket information, reservations, and more information contact them through their website or give them a call at 479-363-6699.
2. Bear Mountain Stables
If your child is into horses, then Bear Mountain Stables is a great chance for them to hit the trails on one of the 12 horses in their stable.

There are also cabins available for families that want to stay a few days and really soak in all the beauty that the Ozarks have to offer.
