Turkey Mountain Urban Wilderness

One of northeastern Oklahoma’s unique recreational treasures, the Turkey Mountain Urban Wilderness encompasses over 300 acres of rugged park land located only a few miles from Tulsa’s vibrant downtown. Participants will be surrounded by a thick canopy of trees including:

• Native Trees: Post and Blackjack Oak, Hickory, Redbud, and other species.
• Park Area: Stretches north-south from I-44 to 71st Street, and from Elwood Avenue, east to the Arkansas River.
• Highest Point: Lies within the park’s boundaries, rising 300 feet above the river.
