Spread along miles of the Arkansas River, as it flows through Tulsa, River Parks provides some of the metropolitan area's finest outdoor recreation. More than 20 miles of asphalt-surfaced recreation trails weave past picnic areas, playgrounds, fountains and sculptures. The park's landscape ranges from manicured lawns to the rugged terrain of the Turkey Mountain Urban Wilderness Area.
Recreation in River Parks includes fishing, rowing, kayaking, frisbee golf, hiking, biking and horseback riding.
During warm weather months, a variety of outdoor events are offered for the public's enjoyment. Entertainment opportunities include concerts, festivals and the state's largest free fireworks display on the Fourth of July (click here to visit the Tulsa Salutes Freedom web page). Park facilities are also available for rental for activities such as runs, company parties, weddings and convention entertainment.
