Sorghum Hollow Horse Camp
Ozark National Forest
This developed camp has 15 family camping
units (no electrical or water hookups), a pond for watering horses,
a vault toilet, an outdoor shower (bring your own solar heated water
bag) as well as day-use parking. The camp is the official trailhead
for the Huckleberry Mountain Horse Trail. A user fee is charged at
this location.
the Huckleberry Mountain Horse Trail
provides 37.3 miles of trail for multiple uses. Originally designed
for horseback riding, the trail now provides recreation
opportunities for hikers, off-highway vehicles (OHVs) and mountain
biking. Winding valleys framed by rugged mountain bluffs give way to
spectacular views of the surrounding area. The trails meander
through numerous creeks which provide water for thirsty horses. Pond
locations not adjacent to the trail are designated by signs and blue
arrows. Six trail crossings are located along Big Shoal Creek. These
crossings can be difficult during times of high water. Please
exercise extreme caution when crossing Big Shoal Creek. Each trail
crosses several gravel roads with portions located along old logging
roads and open forest roads. These roads allow visitors to access
the trail system from many locations. Backcountry trails are rugged
and remote. Trails vary in difficulty from easy to strenuous.
Bulletin boards are located at many trail access points with a trail
registration box. For monitoring purposes and your safety, please be
sure to sign in at registration boxes.

back, depending on your available time), Bell Springs Loop (6.6
miles. An easy loop trail great for shorter rides with relatively
level terrain), & Apple Loop (12.2 miles. This loop provides
relatively easy riding terrain for OHVs along existing forest roads
and old logging roads).
