Visitors can enjoy hiking trails, camping facilities, and stunning views of the river and surrounding mountainous landscape.
The Bull Shoals-White River State Park emerged from the massive infrastructure projects of the 1940s, specifically the construction of the Bull Shoals Dam by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. This project not only provided flood control and hydroelectric power but also created a remarkable ecosystem that would become a premier destination for fishing, recreation, and wildlife conservation. The park's establishment in 1955 marked a significant milestone in Arkansas's approach to environmental preservation and outdoor recreation.
