Village Creek State Park

About

Village Creek State Park is a state park in eastern Arkansas, about 6 miles from the town of Colt. The land is managed by State Park and Recreation, and the park serves as a base for a cluster of hiking and mountain biking routes that sit within a mile or so of one another. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Wynne run to highs in the low 70s in April and mid-70s in October, while summer highs reach around 90 degrees. Several trails start close by. Beech Valley Trail North is about half a mile away, and Big Ben Trail and the Bicycle Entrance Connector are each roughly 0.6 miles off. Lake Austell Trail, about 0.7 miles away, rounds out the mix of nearby hiking and riding options.
