Explore Hundreds Of Acres Of Unparalleled Views Of Mountains On The Scenic Jed Johnson Tower Hike In Oklahoma
We are fortunate to have so many beautiful places to go hiking in the Sooner State. One of our favorite areas to explore is the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge in southwestern Oklahoma. With over 25 trails to choose from, there is something for all skill levels. One, in particular, the Jed Johnson Tower Trail, is an easy trail that will lead you past a beautiful lake, epic mountains, and an old stone tower. Check it out below:
There are thousands of acres to explore in the Wichita Mountains in Oklahoma. Not all are accessible by hiking, so it's more like hundreds of acres you can enjoy by foot. This beautiful area is home to over two dozen hiking trails, making it one of the most popular areas in the state for hiking.
Some people hike multiple smalls trails, while others set out on the more advanced, longer hikes. One of our favorite shorter hikes is along the Jed Johnson Tower Trail.
Dogs are allowed on the trail if they are on a leash. Good tennis shoes for everyone in the family are highly recommended, as you will encounter small stones along the dirt path.
