Kingston, Arkansas

About this city

Kingston is an exceptionally tranquil, rustic mountain hamlet buried deep within the towering hardwood ravines of the high Ozark Mountains in Madison County. Centered around a charming, unpaved historic grassy public town square, Kingston represents a beautifully untouched capsule of traditional Appalachian-style settler heritage in rural Arkansas. Surrounded by jagged limestone cliffs and pristine national forest creeks, the town serves as an isolated, off-grid haven for backcountry hikers and motorcycle riders seeking the absolute rawest wilderness escape.
