Lake Ouachita is the single largest lake in Arkansas, and a great source of outdoor recreation for those visiting Hot Springs. More than one thousand miles of shoreline border Lake Ouachita, and since no homes are allowed on the lake you'll find a pristine example of natural Ozarks beauty when visiting.
The water's crystal veins offer numerous areas for scuba diving, but there's also plenty for the novice outdoor adventure as well. Boating, fishing, swimming and all other sorts of fun is easily accessible, and provides great water fun. For those that would prefer to stay dry on land, there are more than 700 miles of biking, hiking and all-purpose trails to explore the natural beauty from the ground as well. No matter how you go about it, Lake Ouachita is sure to provide those who visit with a great experience of activity and sightseeing.
