3. Guided Hike & Ice Cream
What could be better than the outdoors and some ice cream?! On this guided hike & ice cream, you’ll start at the Alum Cove Natural Bridge Recreation Area with a short 1.5 mile hike with 272 ft elevation change. The trail leads to one of the largest natural bridges in the Ozarks, located in a gorgeous valley enclosed by the bluff line. The bridge spans 130 ft and is made of solid rock by a small creek. This hike has it all – natural bridge, caves, waterfalls and amazing bluffs!
After the hike, you will head to the quaint town of Jasper, AR to the famous Blue Mountain Cafe. Their hand dipped ice cream will be the perfect way to cool off in the heat of the summer. You’ll have time to see the main square of this amazing town surrounded by the Ozark mountains before you head back to Branson!
This hike happens every Monday during the month of August!
