Come explore one of the most dramatic waterfall clusters in the Ozarks on this rugged hiking adventure into the remote Boen Gulf drainage of the Upper Buffalo River Wilderness. Arkansas boasts more than 200 natural waterfalls, and in winter and spring these landscapes come alive—nowhere more spectacularly than where two creeks converge to form Magnolia Falls (26 ft.), Woods Boys Falls (33 ft.), and Stahle Falls (63 ft.) in a steep, secluded gorge.

This 2.1-mile round-trip trek follows an old jeep road before transitioning into a short bushwhack, creek crossings, and uneven, rocky terrain. The effort is well rewarded: seeing all three waterfalls on a single outing offers exceptional scenery for a relatively short distance. Because of the rugged footing and off-trail sections, this hike is recommended only for active, fit hikers comfortable with challenging conditions.
