When I get to a new town, my first impulse is to find a good place to walk. If that’s on your list for downtime during WordCamp Fayetteville, you’re in luck.<\/p>\n

Fayetteville has a wonderful system of trails connecting with an almost-complete walking or biking tour up to Bentonville. Take the Virtual Tour<\/a> to get a complete picture, with a map and everything.<\/p>\n

Or read on for a few highlights.<\/p>\n

If you want to get a real hiking feeling without leaving town, head to Lake Fayetteville<\/a>. You’ll find an entrance just off of Zion Road — turn east off of College Ave. by the Northwest Arkansas Mall and park at the Veterans Memorial Park.<\/p>\n

Want to see more of the town on your walk?<\/p>\n

Consider the Scull Creek Trail<\/a>, which is wheelchair accessible, or the Mud Creek Trail<\/a>. Click through the links to get maps. Both of these fully-paved trails give you a good view of the town, and they’re connected. Start with Mud Creek off of Old Missouri Road, continue on to Scull Creek, and then take the Frisco Trail<\/a>, and you can get in 7.6 miles before you join us on Friday night at Mermaids<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Do you want some physical challenge beyond just getting in the steps? Consider the Mt. Sequoyah Woods Trail<\/a>. This trail is popular for mountain bikes, but you’ll often have it to yourself. Expect to do a bit of climbing along the way.It’s only a mile from downtown, but you’ll definitely feel like you’ve had a walk in the woods.
