from the parking lot, cross over creek crossing towards the handicapped parking lot, very steep climb. at the top the trail turns to a very easy smooth trail up too to where you cross a wooden bridge at the end of the lake. just a little after you turn off the wooden bridge the trail splits into the lower sycamore trail very easy and flowy. or the upper bluff trail, more advance with lots of technical sections, but very fun and some amazing overhead rock formations. the trails will tie back together, with the option for a short switchback that heads back to the parking lot, which i did not ride, or continue straight with some rock ledges and technical sections, this section ties back into the narrow gravel road that you came in on. take a left on the gravel road and head back to the parking lot.
head north out of eureka springs, just out of town catch oil springs road, then head down a long narrow gravel road to the parking lot.
