This is a beautiful trail with lots to explore. Under the pedal rocks are some caves that are fun to explore. I would recommend taking the loop to the rocks first to take the easy route back at the end of this 2 mile hike.
Loved this trail! Beautiful views and a lot less crowded than the more popular trail in the area, Hawksbill Crag/ Whitaker Point.
Great place anyone that is in okay shape should be fine on the trails. Great fall colors this trip. Late October. If you are in good shape exploring the base of the cliffs is quite the adventure.
This loop trail is about 2.6 miles according to my Apple watch. The parking lot holds about 4 cars and there is a picnic table. This trail is very well marked and appears to be maintained. Still, there are plenty of rocks and roots and there is a significant elevation drop down to the cliff area and whosoever walks down must then walk back up. There are multiple “Pedestal rocks” at the end of the loop. Many of the cliffs have no guard rail so watch children carefully. It does not appear that there is any cell coverage. Nice one hour hike. We did not take the Kings bluff trail but that is also available here. Highly recommended.
Awesome hike in the Ozark St. Francis National Forest! Love the scenery, the rock formations, the caves and the views!!!
The rock features and caves make this a wonder-filled hike any time of year. Leaf-off has spectacular views along much of the trail. Wet weather adds gorgeous falls. Easy hike with a good amount of parking. NP toilet facility near trailhead.
Amazing. Had no idea this place existed until a few weeks ago. Sorry I didn't go sooner. I'll definitely go back. Thick trees so would like to go late fall or early spring. It's a bit of a walk from the parking area (a mile or so) but the trail is wide and well-marked and very little elevation change so it's not a hard trek.
Wasn't a terrible hike but there were a couple spots with trees blocking the path. One spot in particular the tree and branches were covering the path to the point where you had to trek through the downed tree. Bees were buzzing around it so we made it through as quick as possible. When we saw the sign for pedalstal trail we went right and came back up the left side. Not too sure if it was easier this way or not. Took us about an hour and a half with stopping for photos.
