Be prepared to spend HOURS lost in there. The trails are incredibly long and theres maybe 2 maps I came across the entire 2 hours it took us to get the hell out of there. After a long time of desperation, we finally came across Kessler road...still never found a stupid trail exit. Had to uber back to my effing car.The online map is TOO HARD TO FOLLOW!

Great trails for mountain biking and hiking. Signs of vehicles being broke into in the back parking lot. Suggest keeping vehicles locked and valuables out of sight.

Great parking, easy access, beautiful scenery, and well maintained. If you like technical rides, give Spellbound and Crazy Mary a try. If you want something thats more flowy and easier on the legs, Terrapin Station and Last Call are both fun. The trail crew, Ozark Off-Road Cyclists (OORC) are very friendly and regularly post updates on Facebook. You can make a whole day out on these trails.

This is a hidden gem so close to Fayetteville. sports fields, mountain biking/hiking, playground. Well maintained and surrounded by hillsides that make you remember you’re in the foothills of the Boston Mountains!

Very nice park although looks as someone political had a buddy in the landscaping/nursery business. I have never seen so many trees and bushes crammed packed in a city park.....tax dollars come easy apparently.

Really nice park. Very large with several different baseball/ soccer fields, childrens play area, hiking trails etc. Its connected to razorback Greenway. Only downside is its kind of desolate a couple of miles before you get to it on the Greenway.

Great hiking trails! Took my 2 and 3 year old toddlers and they did fine holding a hand. A few mildly muddy spots but most areas had big rocks to help you cross. Not crowded at all! Perfect family day hike

A very cool large multi use park at the southern end of the present Fayetteville trail system. Very under utilized due to the pandemic.

This place is so nice and out of the way of town giving it a very quiet atmosphere. However, I wish there was more information about the park for people who have never been.

It was hard to find directions, people could get easily lost. They should have more competent maps that actually lead people in the right direction. Be a first time goer there a lot of dangers. Plus the trail names are dumb.

A great addition to the Fayetteville parks portfolio with lots of land, soccer & baseball fields and some of the best hand-built trails in northwest Arkansas. The perfect area to hike, run or bike on the Kessler trail system. Watch out for wildlife incbears! black besrs!

Well maintained dirt trails for mountain biking, hiking and trail running located in Fayetteville. While there is plenty of parking, you can get there easily via the paved city trail system. Razorback Greenway > Town Branch Trail > Cato Springs Trail.

Nice views and rock formations. I love to mountain bike there. Water doesnt drain fast so it stays muddy but OORC is working on improvements.

Enjoyed the trail today even though it was very busy and muddy in places. There was very few opportunities for photos. We stayed on the last call trail and felt it was easy for children.

Great sports venue for kids.Kessler Mountain Park provides multiple soccer and baseball fields for teams in Northwest AR. On any weekend many families gather to watch their kids compete and to socialize with other families. A great well maintained open space for family too enjoy the outdoors and have good clean funThere is also a good bike trail on the other side of Kessler Mountain

Review №57

Ive rode mountain bikes here for the past 2 years. It is a beautiful lush place with awesome dirt and hiking trails. Very lacking in mountain bike trail variety. Whoever built these trails didnt think about drainage and they have no flow with an average steepness of -3%. Also for having the best combo of terrain, elevation and soil content in arkansas the trails really COULD be world class

Review №58

Great place to hike,bike, walk. Has Soccer fields and the hiking trails are beautiful. It also has a nice playground. The playground was designed with nature in mind. It also has the the rubber type surfacing so its safer for children who trip and fall. Great place to take your family or just to enjoy nature alone. Im so glad I stumbled upon this gem.

Wonderful multi-use trail system. Hikers, joggers and mountain bikers all flock to this place on the weekends so it can get busy. Trails are very good and flow well. They are currently working on drainage issues and erosion prevention. If you havent been yet its worth checking out. Just be wary of downhill mountain bike traffic, they are silent and fast.

A lot of good trails and views at Kessler Mountain. Access has been a little confusing in the past and Im still not 100% sure the correct way to access some of the trails. Not far from town and has some nice overlooks near the top. Good hiking for being so close to the University.

Review №82

I love to run/walk my dog/ride bikes here. There are a few setbacks which is why i didnt rate 5 stars. The bathrooms are a very long way from the play area and were closed last time we were here. Also, the fields were closed indefinitely with no reason as to why and that is a good majority of the park. The park is beautiful and quiet.

Review №83

This is a great park, and beautiful. We love walking rhe trails. It would get 5 stars if there were swings on the playground. It would be nice if there were a playground closer to the baseball fields too.

First time here. Walked two of the easier trails. So far everything was well marked and definitely want to go back for the harder trails. I would have liked it more if they would have a drink station and trash cans near the trailhead with pet friendly services as well.

Review №95

There are things about living in Northwest Arkansas, and specifically the city of Fayetteville, that make it the best place in the world to be. One of those is this citys devotion to large tracts of wilderness Park, and top-of-the-line sporting facilities integrated there in. Kessler has all that.
