Ozark Highlands Scenic Byway
Ozone Recreation Area, AR

Nestled amongst tall timber, The Ozone Recreation Area was originally the site of a CCC camp during the late 1930s and early 1940s.

The CCC, under Forest Service administration located at Ozone Recreation Area, built many local roads, fought fire, planted trees, built fire towers, and provided the basic management foundation for the National Forest to develop the outstanding scenery along the Scenic Byway.

Currently the campground and pavilion are next to the site of the CCC camp. Brush and undergrowth have been cleared so that some of the structure foundations are visible for visitors to see while strolling through the site.

Visitors can also access the Ozark Highlands Trail from here.
