Buffalo River Reviews
Buffalo National River was named one of the top ten undiscovered national parks everyone must visit by
AOL Travel.
"With peaks half a mile high and wilderness covering tens of thousands of acres, visitors come to cave, mountain bike or paddle between high limestone cliffs on the Buffalo National River."

July 2010
"The 10-mile float from Ponca to Kyles Landing on the Buffalo River gets my vote as the most scenic in the Ozarks. The way is lined with streaked bluffs, some more than 500 feet high, and many drip with water that sparkles like diamonds . . ."
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
"so many trails...so little time."

"Wow! What a wonderful experience. My first time down the Buffalo---and I am hooked!"
