There's a lot of options in the national forests, not too familiar with them personally but I do see some groups put together runs occasionally. One that comes to mind is the Kiamichi Trail (K-Trail). Also, several off road parks within the state. Only one I've been to is Hot Springs ORV Park, great place with a nice range of trails for all levels.

I've heard about the high lifter park, and I'm wanting to go up there to try it out, but what I'm really looking for is the trails that nobody really knows about

The Mt Ida and Crystal mountain areas, just west of Hot Springs have some easy to moderate backwoods trails. I have been there lots of times. Interesting area. That area is in the Ouachita National Forest.

those are the trails that i have been wondering about, i found some near alberts pike but they are all closed off. if there wasn't a 1000 dollar fine for taking a vehicle on them then i would totally tackle them too.

The trails were open when we took them. We only saw a couple of other vehicles though.

How would we know to tell you what trails there are if no one knows about them lol
There are literally thousands of trails through Ouchita National Forest and Ozark National Forest. It takes years to gather enough information to do runs through them. A lot of tight 4wheeler trails, dead ends with no turn arounds, and some look like a trail but end up going 10' in with nothing further. There is a big following for these kind of runs on IH8MUD forums. Most of it is public land, but no one is just going to give up the trails they've established over the years. If you're lucky enough to friend someone that has, they'll invite you along on trail runs.
Your other option is Hot Springs Off Road Park. Many many acres of established trails with signs for every single trail and a map you can use. The Arkansas Crawlers club often has new guy and beginners runs, you can tag along with them. If you're just starting out, this is a really good way to stretch your legs, learn your limitations, and gain some experience.
