Picnic in Eureka Springs

Choosing where to go on a picnic should be a walk in the park, literally. However, when visiting a new place, it can be difficult to choose the right spot.

Eureka Springs has multiple parks for different picnic-esque settings. For a picnic in downtown Eureka surrounded by history, check out Basin Spring Park. For picnics surrounded by nature, Black Bass Lake and Lake Leatherwood are excellent options. All of these locations have attractions to check out nearby if you want to make your picnic an all-day adventure!
