Lake Sylvia Recreation Area
Nestled between scenic pine and oak-clad mountains in the northeast corner of the Ouachita National Forest is Lake Sylvia Recreation Area. The serene 18-acre lake is noted for its swimming and fishing opportunities only 38 miles west of Little Rock. Lake Sylvia Recreation Area and Camp Ouachita are now managed by the Arkansas State Parks. Lake Sylvia Trails
