Escape The Entire World On The Secluded Kite Trail In Oklahoma

Right now seems to be the perfect time to escape the world and head to a secluded trail in the middle of the Wichita Mountains. Kite Trail is a 2.4-mile out and back trail that’s surrounded by breathtaking views, epic mountains, and beautiful wildlife. Learn all about it below, then plan a trip to experience a hike unlike any other.

The Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge encompasses 59,020 acres and is home to a variety of hiking trails for all skill levels.

Kite Trail is a 2.4 mile out and back trail that features a lake and is good for all skill levels, as it is rated as easy.

It's the perfect trail to give you a great view of the 40 ft. hole...and you can even venture off the trail and go down to the bottom of it.

If you choose to stay up on the trail, you'll get a bird's eye view of the beautiful falls and water below.

The trail is accessible year-round and dogs are allowed on a leash.

There are some small rocks on the trail and the elevation level changes only a little bit, so even kids can navigate the hike.

There's no better place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life than in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. Lace-up those hiking boots, pack some snacks and set out to enjoy this peaceful hike.

It’s a sea of color out there in the spring. Look for fields of coreopsis wildflowers and Indian Blankets that are breathtakingly beautiful.
