The five crown jewels of the Ozarks
On these pages is the story of five rivers. Five rivers that begin quietly within walking distance of each other high in the Ozark National Forest. They plunge down the Ozark Mountains gathering force and size and they become the five crown jewels of the Ozarks, legendary in their beauty, loved for the outdoor recreation excitement they offer.

The five rivers are The Mulberry, beginning near Ozone and flowing southwest to join the Arkansas River; The Piney which flows southeasterly to also empty into the Arkansas River; The Buffalo River, which winds east 132 miles to the the White River; The Kings, which treks north eastward to also flow into the White River; and, finally, The White River itself.
Each of the rivers is different, each distinctive, yet they have this in common: they offer people who love to be outdoors, young or old, families or individuals, a place and an activity filled with soul-satisfying scenic beauty.
Choose trail riding, hiking, mountain biking, scenic drives, camping, fishing, floating or kayaking, swimming, birding or wildlife photography. Choose a river. Choose a season. The choices all spell fun on these Ozark crown jewels.
