THE OZARK REGION:

One of the Midwest’s Premier Getaway Destinations

Gorgeous Natural Settings With Boundless Outdoor Recreation

The Ozarks is a gorgeous region with a diverse environment comprising some of the Midwest’s most stunning forested mountains and lakes. The area is known for its picturesque waterfalls, deep caves and caverns, and lush forests. It is home to a diverse spectrum of wildlife, including mountain lions, bears, caribou, deer, and so much more.

Visitors to the Ozarks can expect to enjoy endless recreational excitement. Come summer, the region is warm and humid, and many prefer to enjoy its renowned scenic lakes to beat the heat, including the Lake of the Ozarks, Table Rock Lake, Bull Shoals Lake, and more. Many boat, fish, swim, and participate in water sports at these scenic waterfront settings.

This region also offers non-stop outdoor adventure. Even in colder weather, there is plenty to enjoy in the Ozarks. Hiking and biking are year-round activities there, and caverns are around 60 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the year, no matter the temperature outside. Fishing and bird watching are also popular in the Ozarks during the winter.
