Local Tips
Hartville is the county seat of a county where the rugged Ozark terrain has kept development minimal and the rural character intact. The Gasconade River headwaters provide excellent trout fishing, and the surrounding Mark Twain National Forest offers hiking and hunting in remote Ozark scenery.
What You'll Find There
Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and the deep Ozark community spirit of a county where cattle farming in the hill country and the traditions of Ozark agriculture are passed down through generations.
The Fair
Held annually in Hartville, the Wright County Fair celebrates a south-central Missouri Ozarks county where the Gasconade River headwaters begin their journey and where cattle ranching, timber, and the traditional Ozark agricultural life have sustained small communities in a county named for the brothers who inspired America's first flight.
