About Shepherd of the Hills


The Ozarks mountains are some of the most magnificent views in all of Missouri and Arkansas. Home to sprawling forests and sparkling waters, the area quickly became an inspiration to many creative minds who visited. One such person was Harold Bell Wright, who fell in love with the area so much that he penned a book entitled Shepherd of the Hills inspired by what he saw. With Inspiration Tower and the other attractions at Shepherd of the Hills, guests can marvel at the gorgeous Ozark Mountains and see what Harold Bell Wright saw and fell in love with in the early 1900s.

"Great, great fun."
This was one wonderful family reunion activity that we really enjoyed and had a great time. Brings members closer together, especially when we don’t live close together. Great, great fun.
Tip: Just make sure your “big boys” are within the weight limit. One of ours had to sit it out. Bummer. But the others had a great time.
