ABOUT

Venture deep into the bottomland hardwoods of South Arkansas and discover the Beryl Anthony Lower Ouachita Wildlife Management Area — a sprawling 10,986-acre tract where the Ouachita River winds through seasonally flooded forests, pine ridges and prairie remnants. Managed by the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission, this rich habitat offers some of the region’s most dynamic outdoor possibilities: from spring floods that transform the landscape into a waterfowl haven to quiet stretches perfect for fishing and primitive camping. Whether you’re drawn by the promise of a crisp duck morning, a meditative afternoon by a slough, or simply the hush of trees and river, this landscape rewards those who seek both challenge and peace. It’s not just a place to visit — it’s a place to experience nature’s rhythm in South Arkansas.
