THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Spectacular Spring in the Arbuckles!

Spring Renewal

Spring is a time for renewal and new beginnings... the temperatures rise, the tulips and daffodils bloom, the redbud trees blossom. It is a time to re-energize yourself! Take a trip to a beautiful place where nature beckons you to enjoy its beauty, peace, and tranquility.

Fishing & Hiking

Fish in a boat or on a covered wheel-chair accessible fishing dock at Lake of the Arbuckles.

Hike to the top of the falls at Turner Falls Park or the more than 30 miles of maintained trails that range from short, level strolls to steep, uneven climbs at Chickasaw National Recreation Area. Keep your eyes open for wild turkeys and white-tailed deer using the same trails as quail and bobcats.

Bird Watching

The Arbuckles are a birdwatchers paradise. Cardinals and goldfinches share the sky with scissor-tailed flycatchers and meadowlarks.

Scenic Driving

You will see nature at its best when you take the scenic drive winding through mountains and fields covered with beautiful wildflowers.

Safari Adventures

Experience Arbuckle Wilderness in the Spring. See the wild animals and their new babies, roll down your windows and hand feed friendly exotic creatures roaming the 8-mile-long drive-through exotic animal park.

ATV Off-Roading

Load up your ATV or dirt bike and ride to your heart's content on the 6500 acre Cross Bar Ranch.

Local Boutiques and Shops

Enjoy a different kind of shopping away from the hustle and bustle of busy malls. Instead, park your car and stroll down Main Street Davis; hear the birds chirping, enjoy the fresh air, and admire the live oak trees in the flower boxes lining the street.
