The Mount Ida Area Chamber of Commerce presents a wonderful opportunity to Love Our Outdoor Paradise! February 4th registration/check in will begin at 10am and the race will begin at 11am.

A day of running/walking beginning on the Denby Bay Trailhead of the Lake Ouachita Vista Trail (LOVIT) . There will be 2 possible stopping points- Homestead Trailhead is a takeout point with a parking area between the Denby Bay and Tompkins Bend trailheads which is 3 miles or you can continue on to Tompkins Bend Trailhead an additional 2 miles at the campground near Shangri La Resort. The area is located 25 miles west of Hot Springs and 12 miles east of Mount Ida off of Hwy 270. You will turn onto Shangri-La Drive and make the first left which is OLD HWY 270. Look for signs posted for the run. Registration will be set up 500 ft down OLD HWY 270. Parking will be at that location and along the road.
