The Veterans Council of Northwest Arkansas, a 501(c)(3) organization, was formed in 2001 with the mission of honoring America’s veterans, who have contributed so much to securing the freedoms we enjoy today. The Veterans Council is responsible—through generous donations—for the construction of the Veterans Wall of Honor in Bella Vista. For more information please visit their website.

Northwest Arkansas is known for its biking and hiking trails, many of which are in Bella Vista. The trails in Bella Vista were designed and constructed primarily for mountain biking, although use of the trails for hiking is permitted. With numerous elevation changes due to the Ozark Mountains, you can find various levels of challenging trails. But that isn’t all. We have paved walking trails available at Lake Bella Vista, Loch Lomond and Branchwood. And, bring your furry friends with you to the Loch Lomond trail as there is a dog park for their enjoyment.
The Highlands Gun Range is located on the far west side of Bella Vista and is set-up for both trap and skeet and rifle/pistol. It has three trap fields and two skeet fields with overlay. The 100-yard rifle range features six covered shooting benches, while the 25-yard pistol range offers covered shooting positions and a covered waiting area at the 50-yard mark.
Members and Non-Members are required to bring their own guns and ammunition; targets are provided for a fee through an electronic management system.
