Gary Vernon, General Manager of the Oz Trails Bike Park, will be giving us a tour of the hiking trail at the park (2726 Bella Vista Way, Bella Vista, AR 72714, on the west side of 71 across from Allen’s).
The tour will start at 9:30am (you can arrive as early as 9am). Gary will start the tour inside the building by giving us some background on the trails, a tour of the facility, and then lead us on a hike up the South Trail which is 1.3 miles.
WHEN YOU ARRIVE, come to the main building to check in and get a wristband.

You don’t need a lot of tread on your shoes as the trail is pretty easy without a lot of rocks, so regular tennis shoes would even work fine. We will all stay together as much as possible. The pace will be fairly slow.
**OPTIONAL COSTUME CONTEST: Since it’ll be Halloween, those interested are encouraged to come in costume. The person voted the best costume will get a prize, courtesy of the Bike Park.
This event is organized by Hike NWA (hikenwa.org), a local non-profit on a mission to inspire and empower more people to confidently enjoy and care for our local trails.
