Hiking : Roaring River

Springhouse Trail

A springhouse was a small building built over a spring, used to keep meat and dairy cool, back in the days before good ol' refrigerators. This .5 mile trail winds its way back from behind the Emory Melton Inn. It does have a climb to get up to the old homestead site and springhouse, so bring your water. The trail is well-traveled, and well-maintained.

Roaring River offers exceptional trout fishing, swimming, camping, hiking & biking, and simply relaxing in the beautiful Ozark Mountains in southern Missouri.
