About Crystal Bridges Parks & Gardens

The trails, walkways and hiking paths of the park and gardens at Crystal Bridges will create an environment of new connections within the town of Bentonville, Arkansas, and its neighborhoods. Visitors will find the accessible woodland of flowering trees and natural springs an inviting complement to the art museum.

The Crystal Bridges Park and Gardens are set within a forested valley, which on its southern border reaches to within a few blocks of the Bentonville town square.

Currently there is a pedestrian bike trail that ambles along the western edge of the museum grounds, called The Crystal Bridges Trail, part of the City of Bentonville’s trail system. Further along this trail, Crystal Bridges Museum has installed an observation deck that will give visitors the opportunity to watch the museum construction progress. Several months before opening the museum we will take the structure down to revert that area back to nature.
