Thinking about trying out Mt. Magazine State Park with the camper.  Any recommendations for fun to do nearby? (2 - 3 hour drive is still "nearby")  Renting quads or dirtbikes?  Anything of the adventure variety?  Good eats?  Also wondering about Cane Creek State Park SE of Little Rock.

Appreciate any advice.

Mt Magazine, highest point in Arkansas! There is great Dirt/Street riding very close by.

I dont know of any bike rental places!

Cane Creek SE of LR...never heard of it. Theres a great hiking trail called Caney Creek its SW of LR, close to Mena.

I'm not up on where to go dual sporting and such in that area. I live in north central AR and you're just a short way from some great paved roads.
Head towards Ozark, AR from Mt Magazine and take Hwy 23 north to AR 215, head east to Oark and have a great meal at the Oark General Store. Go back out 215 to 103 and head south into Clarksville. From there you can follow a variety of roads back to Magazine.
Shirleys Outback (no affiliation with the chain) is just north of the park, has good food, and is moto friendly. There's also a great mexican restaurant on the south side of the river in Ozark.
Make a ride up Hwy 7 to Jasper and eat at the Cliff House Inn, just south of town. Or ride into Jasper and eat at the Ozark Cafe, which has been in business since 1909.
Have a great trip.
