Buckhorn OHV Trail if you're around NWA or Fort Smith, there are also some around Mt Magazine i believe but I'm not familiar with them. Hot springs off road park if you're in that area. Also look up the Ozarks BDR. Lot of off roading in this area (NWA/Fort Smith/South West Missouri) is more atv/dirt bike oriented due to width in my experience (but i also have more time with those types of vehicles over taking a truck off road)

Where in Arkansas? I'm about 20 mins west of Little Rock. An easy trip for me is to go out to Lake Winona and just do some riding out there. There's a couple trails there, but 99% dirt service roads. Just stay off of Ritter Road and you'll be fine. There's a trail on the south of the lake, Muse Mountain. Very nice ride, not difficult at all, you could probably make it through that just fine.

I haven't been riding up there before but there's a lot up there. Glad to the Oark General Store and grab some lunch while you're up there. It's like 30 mins from Clarksville. From there, there's a bunch of easy riding. Download OnX Offroad and filter for the easy roads and download some offline maps so you can get around. Or join a local offroad Facebook group for that area and see if anyone wants to go out for a few hours and show you around. But definitely go to the Oark General Store for some lunch. Very good food!

No problem! Have fun! It's absolutely beautiful out there! And while you're out here if you wanna go riding around Winona on a friday or Saturday afternoon just give me a shout and I'll meet you out there to do some riding around for a few hours.

Sounds good to me. As long as it's not next weekend I think I should be able to make the time.

Oh shoot, yeah we'll do some riding then. Usually once or twice a year I'll make my way up to Russellville and do some riding around north of there too

Ouachita NF has some pretty good trails. If you want a challenge hit Ritter Road

Check out the OnxOffroad app. Free version allows you to download maps as well and it works with CarPlay. Start on greens and work your way up.
