Where is the OHT located?
It is located in northwest Arkansas. The western end of the trail begins at Lake Ft. Smith State Park (currently closed), runs to the east across the main division of the Ozark National Forest, then turns northward, and currently ends just across the river from the Woolum Access on the Buffalo National River. A new section of the OHT that was just built is located on the Sylamore Ranger District of the Ozark National Forest near the lower end of the Buffalo National River south of Mountain Home.
