This could be a really short article, as the easiest way to find a scenic spot in beautiful Branson is to simply look around! The mountains, trees, flora, and fauna all combine together to make the entire region serene and incredibly scenic. But we at Sunset Nightly Rentals don’t believe in taking the easy way out when it comes to our guests’ happiness and satisfaction, so this guide to the best spots for Branson sightseeing is just one small way of ensuring your Ozarks getaway will be unforgettable!
Shepherd of the Hills Inspiration Tower, 5586 MO-76
The most scenic spots, in our opinion, are the ones that allow you to view as much of our mountain town as possible, and the Inspiration Tower at Shepherd of the Hills is the perfect example. Located at the top of a hill and stretching an additional 230 feet into the sky, the panoramic views available from the top will stun you into an appreciative silence as you look down onto a sea of trees, a collection of charming buildings, and off into the distance, the lakes that are a huge part of the draw of Branson. There are a variety of ways to get to this bucolic landmark from downtown Branson. Head north on Branson Landing Boulevard and turn left on E. Main Street. From there you will turn right on Roark Valley Road, left on Shepherd of the Hills Expressway, and finally, another right onto MO-76. The parking lot for the Inspiration Tower will be on your right.
Table Rock Lake
The only thing better than seeing Table Rock Lake from above is having a shore-side seat to all its glory! Stretching out for miles, the cold waters offer the tranquility you often only find at the ocean. But with the trees that surround it and the mountains standing guard in the background, not only is the lake one of the most scenic spots in the valley, it also offers a beautiful spot to enjoy Mother Nature’s greatest show, the sunset! If you rented one of our lakeside vacation escapes, you already know how to get there, but for everyone else, take Branson Landing Boulevard to US-65 BUS S, then follow MO-165 N, being sure to stop before your tires touch the lake!
Dogwood Canyon Nature Park, 2038 West, MO-86 in Lampe
Offering a multitude of scenic spots, we had to include Dogwood Canyon Nature Park as a part of this scenic tour. Offering waterfalls, rugged landscape, and miles to hike, bike, or simply enjoy a picnic in the park, finding the park is the easy thing—simply drive from Pointe Lookout to US-65 S and MO-86 W to Lampe until you arrive at your destination. The hardest part will be leaving at the end of the day when the park closes!
