The town of Norfork, Arkansas, located at the
confluence of the North Fork River and the White River, is one of the
oldest settled areas in northern Arkansas. It's most famous landmark
is the Wolf
House, now the property of Baxter County, which has just undergone a
major historic restoration.
It was the first site in Baxter County to be placed on the National
Register of Historic Places. Norfork's bridge over the White River is also
on the Register, as is a local bed and breakfast. |

Norfork is in north central Arkansas on Arkansas
Highway 5, southeast of Mountain Home. On the banks of both the North
Fork and the White Rivers, Norfork is a delightful place for fishermen to
spend some peaceful time. Whether it's fly fishing from the handicapped
walk-in access area on the North Fork or floating either (or both!) rivers
with any of our first-class guides, be prepared for some fishing
action. |
