Written Directions

Just about 6 miles south of Huntsville, off of Arkansas Route 35, route 74 will be on your left. Take a left and head east to Kingston or you can start in Kingston, and head west on route 74.

Scenery

This short and sweet ride packs sweepers, twisties, long hills, scenic views, & valley ride into 14 sweet miles ride. You'll travel through a scenic pastoral valley complete with a lake when your nearing Kingston. Overall this is just a beautiful ride especially when combining it with a ride to Ponca, Arkansas for a float trip! Also keep in mind you can combine this ride with the famous motorcycle road - The Arkansas Pig Trail.

Drive Enjoyment

No potholes and generally just a smooth ride with plenty of turns thrown in (no decreasing radius turns).

Tourism Opportunities

Don't take this for the "roadside amenities" because there basically are none between Highway 23 and Kingston, Ar. There is a cafe in Kingston and fuel. Consider getting fuel in Huntsville especially on Sunday as there are no stations open in Kingston.

I think this route is just the start of a great ride.Continuing on to Jasper thru Boxley Valley is a must. Watch for the Elk herds in Boxley Valley.
