ABOUT BATTLE FOR HOPE
The Heather Ridley-Fleeman Battle for Hope is a run/walk event held the first Saturday in May each year at the Old Tiger Stadium in Bentonville.

The following year, a close group of Heather’s family and friends partnered with Hope Cancer Resources to help make sure other cancer patients have access to the care they need during treatment and to educate individuals that early detection does save lives.
During her life, Heather was a member of the Walmart supplier community. She was also dedicated to supporting agencies that work to help cancer patients through treatments and make state-of-the-art cancer research locally accessible.

Loop together many different trail routes, ranging from beginner to expert. Start at the top or the bottom and pick your own adventure. The Miller’s Goat green trail runs a bit easier counterclockwise and connects the expert and advanced routes. The Chickalah and Hayes Creek Run Downhill are the only bike-only trails so be mindful of the other users. The Ox-Pull Climb trail is a biker-up hill-only trail. Hikers can go both directions.
If you’re interested in maximum gravity, shuttle by dropping off at Sunrise and rolling down the Sunrise Loop, across Miller’s Goat to the Hayes Creek Run downhill, and getting picked up at the base of the mountain for a 3.5 mile, 1,100ft descent.
The park features a public swimming pool, cabins, a campground, a visitor center with a bike wash station, and countless miles of hiking trails.
