The Mingo Trail comprises two separate segments in the city of Tulsa.
The northern segment runs 3.75 miles between 41st Street and 11th Street and the best access is from Hicks Park (E. 35th St. and Mingo Rd.). The trail links parks and neighborhoods on Tulsa's east side. Some crossings go under the road but one at-grade crossing warrants caution: at Hicks Park E. 35th Street and Mingo Road.
The southern segment runs 3.4 miles between Memorial Road and 81st Street; the best access is at the Tulsa Community College Southeast Campus (81st St. and US 169). At the southwest end of the Mingo Trail you can continue across S. Memorial Drive on the
Creek Turnpike Trail. Use caution at the two at-grade crossings: 91st Street near the hospital and Mingo Road between 91st Street and 101st Street.
For the northern segment, parking is at the Metcalfe Recreation Area on Skelly Dr. (near 21st St. and I-44). You can also park in the cul du sac at the end of 94th E. Ave. near 27th St. and at Hicks Park (Mingo Rd. at E. 34th St.). Southwood Baptist Church (41st & 102nd East Ave.) allows parking at the far end lot.
For the southern segment, you can park at the Tulsa Community College Southeast Campus (10300 E. 81st Street); restrictions may apply.
