About this map

Natural Bridge of Arkansas stands as a prominent landmark in the southern reaches of this Van Buren County landscape, where the terrain transitions toward the city of Clinton. The area is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges, many bearing the names of early settlers such as Ab Smith Hollow, Miller Hollow, and Jim Cates Hollow. Small communities like Old Lexington, Plant, and Arlberg are connected by a web of winding routes including Ar-110 and Mountain Rd.

The geography is heavily dissected by waterways such as Pee Dee Cr and Archey Creek, which have carved out the varied elevations shown here. Local history is anchored by sites like Old Botkinburg and the high-elevation Holly Mountain Airpark. Significant peaks including Coley Knob, Dodd Mtn, and Angora Mtn dominate the skyline, while the presence of the Holly Mtn Cem and Mtn View Cem provide critical points of interest for those researching the genealogical roots of the region.
