The largest of the Toltec mounds, Mound A has a conical shape and is about 50 feet tall. It is the tallest pre-historic mound in Arkansas. There has been no modern excavation of the mound.
Mound A lies directly on the current back of Mound Pond. In order to avoid damage to the bank by visitors trying to walk around the mound, a boardwalk along the pond edge has been built. Visitors (including those in wheelchairs) can have a waterside view of the mounds and enjoy the birds that frequent Mound Pond.
