If you are up for a short drive and some sightseeing, Christ of the Ozarks is worth the time! The views of the Ozarks from here are stunning! Find some fun boutiques and shops along the way and have some great food in Eureka Springs.

#4. Free. All ages. Whatever your religion, check out Jesus with arms wide open. This stop has a lot more to offer if you want to pay admissions, but the statue is free and really the best feature. It's a quick, free stop with great panoramic views and photo ops.
