Hot Springs National Park


Hot Springs National Park


Hot Springs National Park is located in the city of Hot Springs, Arkansas.   Hot Springs Reservation was initially created by an act of the United States Congress on April 20, 1832, and the area was made a national park on March 4, 1921.   It is the smallest national park by area in the United States.

People have used the hot spring water in therapeutic baths for more than 200 years to treat rheumatism and other ailments.   The park is one of the most easily visited national parks.   There are numerous hiking trails and camping areas.   Bathing in spring water is available in several of the bathhouses.
