This Week’s Feature: Hawksbill Crag (Whitaker Point) This Week’s Feature: Hawksbill Crag (Whitaker Point)
Few places capture the spirit of the Ozarks like Hawksbill Crag. Also known as Whitaker Point, this iconic sandstone outcrop rises above the Upper Buffalo Wilderness and offers one of the most breathtaking views in the region. Jutting dramatically over a deep valley of hardwood forest, it frames a sweeping look at the rugged terrain shaped by the nearby Buffalo National River.
The hike to Hawksbill Crag follows the well-known Whitaker Point Trail... a short, rewarding trek through classic Ozarks country. Along the way, hikers pass forested paths, cross small streams, and may even spot seasonal waterfalls after a good rain. The trail is manageable for most, but the payoff at the end is unforgettable.
At the overlook, the land opens wide. Layered hills, towering bluffs, and miles of uninterrupted forest stretch to the horizon. With no guardrails and no barriers, the setting feels raw and real, a reminder that this is still wild country. It’s a place to pause, breathe, and take in the kind of view that defines the Buffalo River region.
Whether you’re hiking for the view, capturing photographs, or simply exploring the Ozarks, Hawksbill Crag remains one of the defining outdoor experiences in northwest Arkansas, and a true highlight of the Upper Buffalo Wilderness.
