Lake Catherine State Park
About a 30-40 minute drive from Downtown Hot Springs, this is a beautiful area! Falls Branch Trail leads to the waterfall about 10-15 of a walk along the trail. If you walk lake side you will get there fastest. The water is COLD no matter the time of the year and it can get packed on weekends and during the days.
