Hot Springs is in the Path of Totality for the 2024 Solar Eclipse

Don’t be like this guy! He might still be around if he’d planned ahead! Get a room! (Preferably in Hot Springs!) Get your NASA-approved eclipse glasses! Arrive a day early! Take the day off! Bring the in-laws! or not!

Let the countdown begin! The Great North American Eclipse is less than a year away. On Monday, April 8, 2024, Arkansas will experience an unforgettable, historic event. And now is the time to decide where you’ll be when the sun goes dark. You decide and Arkansas will provide the perfect location. Because remember … “we put the AR in solAR eclipse!”

When the 2024 eclipse takes place the path of totality will pass over Hot Springs National Park and totality will last for about 3 minutes and 37 seconds in downtown Hot Springs! The park itself is one of only two U.S. national parks located along the path of totality. This unique distinction, along with long durations and the tourist amenities offered by the city, will make Hot Springs a popular viewing destination on April 8, 2024. If you miss next year’s spectacle, you’ll have to wait 20 years until the next one hits the U.S. But that total eclipse will only be visible in Montana and the Dakotas.

So save the date! Hot Springs will be one of the most ideal places in the world to see the eclipse! That leaves you plenty of time to prepare for this amazing occurrence! Book a campsite or choose from numerous hotels and rentals and plan your getaway at the perfect time to see totality happen.

Let’s hope this eclipse brings us a newfound appreciation of the wonder of the cosmos! Here’s to clear skies and NASA-approved eclipse glasses!
