Kyles Landing is a popular takeout point for canoe and kayak trips on the Buffalo National River, serving as the endpoint for scenic floats from Ponca and Steel Creek.

The landing provides access to one of the most scenic sections of the upper Buffalo River, featuring iconic views of Big Bluff and Hemmed-In Hollow, and is located along the designated Upper Buffalo Wilderness Area where a zero-tolerance policy protects the natural quiet ambience.
