Turkey Mountain Wilderness Area

I went for a guided New Year's Day hike and loved it! It's so nice to have a recreation area like this in Tulsa. There are trails for pedestrians and bikers. The trail names are great - I only wish Jake & Elwood were pedestrian trails!

The parking lot was full mid afternoon on a Saturday. It was a lovely day for a hike and checking out a couple of the trails. Lots of options for trails or mountain biking, dogs need to be on a leash. The upper lot also has plenty of parking. It was nice to be outside and enjoy a little bit of nature.

We completed an 8.3 mile hike! The various hiking trails are perfectly shaded. There were easy, medium and hard routes and plenty of people were around so we felt safe. Dogs were leashed also. I am so glad that we found this gem. I highly recommend.

Best place hands down to hike in Tulsa. Great for mountain biking too! Upper lot is my favorite but lower has restrooms. You can brings kids and dogs too, but leash the dogs.

We did a nice hike at turkey mountain! We absolutely love the trails and area here! It's in the city yet you feel out in nature! I loved the areas with water, streams, and such. Very nice walking are. Some trails are harder than others but I'd love to come back here and do more trails!It's got a great parking space and bathrooms along with water fountains and dog fountains for drinking. I didn't feel like we were heavily covered in ticks like other places. If you haven't gone, you gotta check it out!

Love that there is hiking options so close to Tulsa. Never been here before and found it to be a pleasant trail. I followed the google maps to what I thought was the entrance, turns out it's like a second entrance? After following the trail some i found the main entrance with paved parking. Not sure how to drive there, but it had more established entrances to the trails. I decided to follow the blue trail from the other entrance and found it a little confusing. They were doing some "work" on the trail so there was construction stuff on the side of the trail and seemed to be adding better trail markers to follow. I would say the blue trail was relatively easy-moderate. Only thing was it had lots of rocks in some places so if you are unsteady on your feet it might be a little more difficult. I ended up following the blue trail markers from the other entrance to the main entrance, but then had to backtrack to get back to where I parked. Took me 40 minutes

Finally got the chance to go do the natural stairs. It was nice but I expected a little more lol. It is always a great hike though. Beautiful night with a fun companion.

Such a great find during a road trip! I love the winding trails and the feeling of nature in the city. We didn't get to go far because the weather was blazing and we heard two dogs had passed away the day before because of the heat so we left 30 minutes into the trail. If we make a road trip back, we will come back!

Turkey Mountain trails are in the midst of a vast expansion. Both walking and mountain biking trails are being developed and improved. It's a great place for a hike or just to relax on the grassy areas and have a picnic near the main parking lot. Great views of Downtown buildings and CityPlex towers.

9 years after writing my initial review, still loving this place. It took me awhile to adjust to the new trails, but I'm starting to get used to them. Like that bikes and hikers are a bit more separated. And I like how easy the signs are to read.
