Mountains, Shores, Exertion, Relaxation
With 200 man-made lakes, Oklahoma has more than one million surface-acres of water and more miles of shoreline than the Atlantic and Gulf coasts combined.
Oklahoma has four mountain ranges, the Ouachitas, Arbuckles, Wichitas, and Ozarks, as well as the world's highest hill, the 1,999-foot Mount Cavanal.
Oklahoma is one of only four states with more than 10 ecoregions, from Rocky Mountain foothills to cypress swamps, not to mention the urban turf of Tulsa and Oklahoma City.
Native variety sets the stage for endless adventure: Hiking. Biking. Dune buggy riding. Mountain climbing. Scuba diving. Hang gliding. Horseback riding. Floating. Boating. Camping. Canoeing. Fishing. Hunting. Spelunking. Bird watching. Rafting. Kayaking. Rappelling. And out and out playing. Here, road trips are American samplers of Mother Nature.
Oklahoma's urban turf offers all kinds of excitement: Oklahoma City's winding waterways and brick streets in Bricktown and the vibrant Western Avenue restaurant district. Tulsa is a mecca of Art Deco architecture and gracious urban sophistication. Check out the Cherry Street entertainment district and the new Oklahoma Aquarium and Riverwalk Crossing district in Jenks.
If you take your nature manicured, Oklahoma has more than 175 golf courses, including several nationally recognized public courses and courses in Golf Digest's top 10.
