Lake Ouachita Vista Trail segment completed

MOUNT IDA - Dedication ceremonies for the initial 5.2 miles of the Lake Ouachita Vista Trail complex have been scheduled for 1 p.m. on Friday, March 10, at a trailhead on the eastern shore of Denby Bay near Mount Ida.

The trail is a project of the Lake Ouachita Citizens Focus Committee, a volunteer group working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to provide citizen input and support in the Corps’ operation of the lake and its facilities. It was constructed with $130,000 in federal grants as well as matching funds and in-kind contributions supplied by federal, state and local agencies. When completed, the system of hiking and mountain biking trails is expected to include some 35 to 40 miles of trails connecting resorts and Corps of Engineers’ recreation areas on the lake’s southern shore.

The initial section travels north-south along Denby Bay’s eastern shore and runs from the dedication trailhead north to the Corps’ Tompkins Bend Recreation Area.

The trailhead can be reached by taking Shangri-La Road, the entrance road to the Shangri-La Resort, north from U.S. 270 about 10 miles east of Mount Ida and 25 miles west of Hot Springs and then traveling one block and taking Trails End Road left to the trailhead.
