A short drive west brings you to Helena, Arkansas, home of the longest-running daily blues radio show in the U.S., King Biscuit Time. As featured by National Public Radio and the Smithsonian, you can watch a live broadcast at the Delta Cultural Center and explore the city’s blues history on foot. Pair your visit with a drive through St. Francis National Forest for hiking or birding—outdoor adventure meets living musical heritage in one laid-back day trip.
