The 10 best things to do in Bentonville, Rogers, Fayetteville and Springdale,
AKA, northwest ARkansas

#1 Crystal Bridges
Even if you're not a museum goer, it's still a must stop.
one because it's free, two because it has some very amazing and expensive
pieces in it ($35 million dollar painting) Like most things in this area,
it's tied to the Walmart Family. Also, Norman Rockwell’s Rosie the Riveter.

Thing #1.5 to see the grounds directly around it, all 120 acres
which are filled with art pieces and trails galore.

Also, things #2 to see since you're right here is the Frank Lloyd Wright’s BachmanWilson House.

#3, let's get this one over with, you all know Walmart is not only
10 min. down the road from wherever you're watching this from,
but hey, jokes aside, learning about Walmart was very interesting
and I'd go again.. I'd go again because It was closed! Renovations until 2024. The museum itself which
was quite a walk away on a windy nonsummer day (that means it was cold)
Anyway, from the pictures i saw it looked really cool and I'd go back,
however, what we saw was still worth the stop. The museum was interesting with old uniforms to an interactive world map and even Sam Walton himself.. well.. mostly. But it was words he actually said and it was fun.

#3.5 is to get ice cream at the food truck in front, called The Spark. And then explore the Bentonville Downtown Square. I usually get plain chocolate. I felt brave and tried the f150 because of Sam Walton's truck usually parked in front. I do regret it, I didn't like it, it was like liquid red velvet cake. My mom who went with me got the strawberry and she really liked hers.
Ok 4 on this list is the Pineapple Hills Lemonade... just kidding,
that's what it's called when you drive by too fast, it's the Pinnacle Hills Promindae
in Rogers. It's shopping galore on 152 acres in this open air mall, over 100 retailers.

#5 takes us out of the city and into the wilderness of Hobbs State park. there's plenty of outdoor activities you can find here in Arkansas's largest state park at over 12 thousand acres with 54 miles of trails, campsites, and, the only park in Arkansas that allows regulated hunting but in this video, I'm going to focus on the War Eagle Mill. It's not only a pretty mill with a cafe, cute gift shop, and a craft show in October.
Lets move to #6, Ozark botanical gardens.
And lets take #7 back up and around and through the woods to grandmas house we go... no.. but it is 40 miles of fun, the Razorback greenway! Take a bike ride through Fayetteville, Johnson, Springdale, Lowell, Rogers, Bentonville, and Bella Vista. there's many stops along the way and there are many shops to rent one.

#8, what this area is also known for other than Walmart, mountain biking. More than 250 miles of toptier mountain bike trails, offering cyclists one of the best singletrack experiences in the nation.
With the rugged terrain of the Ozarks, and one of the most progressive cycling cultures in the country, Northwest Arkansas has invested in an impressive infrastructure. Trails include downhill runs with shuttles, a bestinclass jump park, pump tracks and skills courses. The area has earned a reputation as one of the top offroad cycling destinations.
Number 9 is that Daisy also got their start here. It was closed yet again on the day we went, which means check the hours before you head there. but it looks like a really cool museum
#10 on the list is 8th street market.
