This is amazing!We went on a Sunday night to see this and the fountains and fire were set to The Star Spangled Banner"and loved it so much that we went back on Monday night to see it again. That night it was set to "Rocky Mountain Way". Both nights were totally awesome. A must see!!!

Slow which gives you a chance to enjoy the view. Well worth the time and costs. Entry to parking not well marked. Wheel is beautiful at night.

This is a beautiful 23 mile drive in gravel and dirt road that starts at 3 different points. We took the one just outside Ava and down to Theodosia that ended at the Hercules glades. At Caney there is a large picnic area with porta potties in a small building (they call them vaulted toilets) and that is THE ONLY BATHROOM STOP, so do not miss it. There is no water there either . This is a beautiful place for a drive in the country or to visit for fall colors. There are oaks, maples, cedar and many other trees and shrubs that give you the full spectrum of fall colors. A bald eagle flew over us on the drive and we saw many other birds and squirrels. There are places to get out that are marked with the QR CODE for a sort of guided tour. There are signs outside all 3 entry points and it is 1 of 51 national scenic byways ! There are benches at most of the marked pull off stops that provide panoramic views while seated and there are description placards at the stops as well. We got free maps and they have some free stickers, carabiners, etc for kids or adults too at the Ranger station - 1103 S Jefferson St -Ava Mo 65608. Watch though stupid Google maps told me it was on the left and it is NOT it is on the right amongst some trees. The ranger station is in a building built by the CCC too (these are always a treat for me) !! The Glade Top Trail road was also built by the CCC ! If you go, take some water and a camera . 23 miles seems short but there are several pull outs and we enjoyed exploring things like the Willie Lee homestead cellar root and the Caney picnic area and with it being gravel and narrow roads plan on a few hours for the drive ! You have to go slow to see the sights and to pull to the side when you meet another car coming the other way . We went on a Monday morning so it wasn't very busy at all. Remember too that it gets dark in the woods early .
