Learn about African American history within the state of Arkansas at the Mosaic Templars Cultural Center. The exhibits at this cultural center and museum focus on the contributions made to business, politics, and arts by African American individuals. The center explores the time periods between 1870 to present day, and sheds light on how important the African American impact has been in the state, the nation and the world.
Take a walk, run, or bike ride down the Arkansas River Trail - or at least part of it. The recreation trail stretches over eleven miles but isn't quite finished yet, when completed it will cover a total of 24 miles. If you decide to brave the whole trail, you'll be walking from downtown Little Rock, to Pinnacle Mountain State Park, from North Little Rock to Cook's Landing, and eventually across Murray Lock and Dam to the Presidential Library. That's a lot of ground to cover, be sure to wear some comfy shoes!
Brave the waves in the wave pool, shoot through water slides, and bum around in the lazy river at Wild River Country water park. The state's largest water park offers 12 rides and attractions, meaning there are plenty of opportunities for adults and children to make a splash. If you're worn out and water logged, play a family game of volleyball on the sand court to dry off.
