Top 6 Historic Walking Areas in Oklahoma, United States

May 7, 2022 Fernanda Pittenger

With hundreds of man-made lakes, state parks, casinos, museums and nightlife and dining opportunities in revitalized downtown areas in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, there is a lot to see and do in the Sooner State. The state is dotted with phenomenal lakes where swimming, boating and bass fishing are the most desired activities. Some of the state’s most popular lakes include Broken Bow Lake located near the Quachita Mountains; Grand Lake in the northeastern corner of the state at the foothills of the Ozark Mountains and Lake Murray in the hills in the southern part of the state. While the state is known for its many outdoor activities like great fishing, golf, hiking, canoeing and boating, make sure you don’t overlook its fantastic museums. Heading the list are Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, featuring the world’s largest collection of art and artifacts from the American West; the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, which tells the story of the American Cowboy; and the Oklahoma City Museum of Art, which has a permanent collection of American and European art. A venerable family favorite activity is Frontier City Amusement Park in Oklahoma City, which has dozens of rides and shows.

If you’re looking for an alternative to huge, impersonal campuses, this could be your best choice. There’s a breadth of degree options, a positive campus environment that is located in the foothills of the Ozark mountains and in the capital of the Cherokee Nation with lakes and rivers and wilderness nearby that offer recreational activities. We’ve attended several activities including lectures by top speakers, musical performances and spent time on campus (I’m well past college age) observing the energy of the young men and women attending the school. The college of optometry has an arrangement with the Cherokee Nation to provide services at their brand new (2019) cutting edge facility that affords students a great opportunity to see many different vision related conditions and enjoy an outstanding learning environment. All in all a really good school for undergrad work and several professional post grad degrees.
