Gilbert Gravel Bar — Buffalo National River
Arkansas F.
Reviewed Sep. 18, 2020

Good place to start a canoe trip

You can find Gilbert Gravel Bar off 65 just south of the city of St Joe’s. Go through the city of Gilbert and you will find parking at the end of the road leading to a fairly large beach/gravel  area. You can tent hear in preparation for a canoe trip or as a stop over along the Buffalo River. We usually drop part of our crew, camping gear, and canoes and then park most of our vehicles at South  Maumelle or Buffalo Point. 

There are plenty of supplies and food opportunities in Gilbert.
