Bentonville Gravel

Join us for an exhilarating gravel biking adventure in the vibrant, bike-friendly Southern town of Bentonville, known for art and culture.

A gravel bike tour in Bentonville? You read that right. Over recent years, Bentonville has transformed from a sleepy Arkansas town to the center of the mountain bike universe, offering an array of culinary options, microbreweries, colorful boutiques, a world-class art museum, and many miles of single track. Beyond the singletrack, the area offers fantastic gravel riding through rolling farmland, framed by the imposing Ozark mountains. These gravel roads offer everything from smooth dirt roads to chunky gravel sections flowing around hidden corners to remote hollows and through endless tunnels of trees. When you're done pedaling, enjoy dinner at culinary hotspots like the Hive and Conifer. Retire to your splendid hotel each evening, just a few steps from the town square, where you’ll find yourself lingering to peruse the contemporary art collection worthy of museum galleries.
