Downtown Bentonville at blue hour

A place worth knowing

Make room for Bentonville.

Give Bentonville time for a collection as well as its outdoor setting. Choose an art museum, a look at local corporate history or a designated trail outing. These experiences operate independently, and a comfortable food break keeps a day from becoming a rushed checklist.

A few good ways to begin.

Choose a stop, then leave room for the unexpected.

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art

Explore current American-art exhibitions and the museum’s grounds. Confirm gallery access, special-exhibition tickets and any construction or event notices before planning your visit.

The Walmart Museum

Explore the museum’s interpretation of the company and its Bentonville origins. Check the current visitor entrance and hours rather than relying on an older temporary location.

Coler Mountain Bike Preserve

Choose an open walking or riding route that matches your group’s skills and equipment. Check current trail status, permitted uses and wet-weather closures; a map does not establish that every trail is suitable or open.
