The Ozarks, in a word, are splendid. Bring your boots, bike, or horse and explore Missouri and the Ozark Trail system! The trail offers trips from just a few to 230 miles, so spend a lazy afternoon at Taum Sauk visiting Mina Sauk Falls or a week backpacking along the Current and Eleven Point Rivers. It’s guaranteed to take away the stress and leave a smile on your face.
