If you’re visiting Bentonville for just a few days or even a week, we’d recommend these three free things to do for both couples and families.
#1 Crystal Bridges
Did you know that 120 acres of sculpture gardens, trails and American Art are completely free at Crystal Bridges? Parking is also free outside and in the parking garage. If you decide to spend any money here, there’s always something cool to see on exhibit or you can grab some food or drinks at Eleven, they’ve got something for everyone.
#2 Bentonville Farmer’s Market
The Bentonville Square is bustling in Spring on Saturday mornings. You’ll see furry companions, arts and crafts, fresh veggies and friendly faces when visiting the market. While it’s free to visit we encourage you to spend a little money on local businesses while you’re there.
#3 Hike in Bella Vista
Looking for a serene getaway after a busy day in Bentonville? Just head a few miles north and hike one of the many trails in beautiful Bella Vista. You might discover a cave, waterfall, lake or unique art piece while hiking here. Just watch out for bikes as most of these trails are shared with riders.
Bentonville and Bella Vista Arkansas are two wonderful neighboring towns that are fun to explore by yourself or with the whole family. There’s tons of fun things to do whether you’re on a tight budget or have plenty to spend. We highly recommend booking your next vacation here in Northwest Arkansas.
