Take SH 51 east from Wagoner, OK or west from Tahlequah, OK to Sequoyah/Western Hills Guest Ranch State Park on the east side of Ft. Gibson Lake. Stop at the office for a trail map. There are multiple trailheads throughout the Park.
A fair trail for beginners. Not very exciting but a great trail ride for families and kids to get started. Main MTB trail is the RED trail and starts near the park entrance. You can also park midway through the park at the paved road trailhead where the paved trail starts. Green trail is paved. Has trailhead as mentioned above and can start at the Golf clubhouse as well. Yellow trail is fairly wide and not used very much. When I rode it in Nov 2016, it had lots of downed tree branches and leaf cover but that is expected for Fall. The MTB "singletrack" is a nice trail but not long or exciting.
| ThankRode the Green and Red Trails. Easy and fast singletrack, some mowed to the width of doubletrack. Not very well-worn trail, but not soft ground either. Some of the trails were mowed (July) and sprayed for poison ivy. Trail heads are well marked. I was on the Red (?) trail and it was not well-marked when it combined with and left powerlines and service roads, i.e., I couldn't follow it sometimes. I found a ribbon of tight singletrack that still had trail flags and I think was the Red trail, but it wasn't mowed and had lots of broken branches and spider webs. Saw lots of deer, and a pack of wild dogs. Bottom line: there are miles of trails here, some of which are kept clean even in the summer, but that are not ridden regularily. Get out there and ride, and tell the park manager that the trials need to be marked along there course and where they meet and leave service roads, powerlines, etc.
