The Lion's Loop is open 24/7, and is a safe and ADA accessible 1-mile long walking trail to promote outdoor activity within the UAFS, and Fort Smith, community.
The Lion's Loop is a product of the Residence Hall Association at UAFS, who worked with the student population to design the best possible route for a walking trail on campus.
