and picturesque routes a motorcycle enthusiast can ride. Capture a glimpse of the beautiful sandstone Subiaco Abbey, a Benedictine monastery

located adjacent to Hwy. 64 in Logan County. The Abbey and its associated academy, a boarding/day school of Catholic tradition, pursue the commercial

cultivation of grapes and other fruits and feed crops which grace much of the TYBA pathway. With the Boston Mountains to your north and the

Ouachita Mountains to your south, you won’t want to miss any of the surrounding countryside. Venturing onward, eyes will rise to the majesty of

Mt. Magazine State Park, the state’s highest peak at 2,753 feet! A summer destination for those seeking respite from the valley’s heat, the cooler

temperatures and beauty of the mountaintop will take your breath away. Winding roads, plentiful foliage and the overhang of colorful Arkansas’

hardwoods make this a year-round route.
