After all the years we lived in and visited Tulsa, we'd never been to Redbud Nature Preserve and I…read moredon't know why. I'm so glad my sister invited us to tag along with her. It was a gorgeous place to explore! It's a fairly easy hike for kids. The trail goes from the parking lot and is about a mile (maybe less) and comes back to the parking lot. My kids won't normally walk this far on their own, but there is so much to see and so much variation on the trail that they never complained or asked "how much longer" - my kids are ages 5-13. There is some climbing around rocks to get through the trail, so little ones and the elderly will need help. Wear good shoes. There is a small nature center and bathrooms. We love this place and will happily go back in any season!

Turkey Mountain is one of those places that makes you forget you're still in the city. Every time I…read morevisit, I'm reminded how lucky Tulsa is to have a true urban wilderness with miles of trails, quiet pockets of nature, and plenty of room to explore. One thing I really appreciate is how easy it is to access the mountain thanks to three different parking lots: Lower Parking Lot (67th & Elwood) The most popular one, right at the base of the main trail system. Great if you want quick access to the Red, Blue, and Yellow trails. Upper Parking Lot (off Elwood, near the top) Perfect if you want a quieter start or prefer jumping straight into the mid mountain trails. West Side Parking Lot (off Highway 75 / 61st area) Aa lesser used entrance that gives you a totally different feel and connects you to some beautiful, less crowded routes. No matter where you start, the trails are well marked, varied, and offer everything from easy strolls to more challenging climbs. If you hike to The Sanctuary, you're rewarded with one of the most peaceful areas on the mountain. You'll come across several ponds, wildlife, and a tree house with bench style swings, one of the most unexpectedly delightful spots in Tulsa. It's the kind of place where you can sit, sway, and just breathe for a moment. Highly recommend spending a morning or evening out here. It's beautiful, accessible, and full of surprises.

A little about it: - pickleball (6 courts and it can get busy. Free) - trail that goes into the woods a little bit. NOT like hiking. - disc golf. Challenging, yet good for beginners. Just skip the holes with the water hazards. - playground. Two playgrounds on the same side of the park. - fields. Soccer and baseball fields. - dog friendly. If you are a loose leash owner, I've seen plenty of people with dogs off leash. Lots of room away from the road. There's not tons of off leash dogs there btw if that concerns you. - picnic/gazebo spots - parking in several areas Again, it's not perfect. It can get busy like all parks, there might be people that you don't care for, and it doesn't have every single feature a park can have - but it gets the job done.

Haikey Creek Park in Tulsa is a lovely spot for a dog walk, especially with our lilcorgi. The park…read morehas a nice paved walking path that winds through the trees and along a creek, providing plenty of shade and interesting sights for both you and your furry friend. The park is well-maintained and clean, with plenty of benches and picnic tables along the way for resting or enjoying a snack. There are also several waste stations throughout the park, making it easy to clean up after your dog. The creek running through the park is a nice touch, providing a peaceful backdrop to your walk. Overall, Hailey Creek Park is a great spot for a leisurely dog walk in Tulsa. The scenery is beautiful, the park is well-kept, and there are plenty of amenities to make your visit enjoyable. I highly recommend it for pet owners looking for a nice place to take their furry friend for a stroll.
