The Botanical Garden of the Ozarks in Fayetteville has nine themed gardens, plus the region's only butterfly house. Arkansas' Wine Country in Altus is an officially designated American Vitacultural Area – same as California's Nappa Valley. The history of this wine-producing region dates back to the 1870's when German-Swiss immigrants settled the area and established their vineyards. The state's longest, fastest and highest zipline called the 'Iron Horse' happens to be at a dude ranch near Jasper – it's also one of the top ziplines in North America.
