"The best way to see Missouri's Ozark hill country is along the Blue Buck Knob Scenic Byway, a 24-mile road that bisects the Mark Twain National Forest, full of densely wooded scenery the author made famous in his works. Along the byway is the Noblett Lake Recreation area, where travelers can take time to picnic or fish for trout."
