In May 2025, I biked a total of 18 miles covering each trail to the endpoints in the parks. I rode a couple days after a huge rainstorm (I heard record breaking amounts), so a few parts of the trail were still under water. I happened to come across a local rider who guided me on some streets to get around them. It was a good trail and good for Bartlesville.
Trail an asphalt paved with easy grades. Southern areas are urban and have a significant homeless presence. Sperry is a wonderful town that has embraced the trail wholeheartedly. Skiatook has an excellent park on the trail but I couldn’t find anything of trail to recommend. All in all a great ride.
On 9/19/24 rode the trail for about 9.5 miles with my wife. The trail was good macadam the entire length and flat and mostly shady. The Central Park had restrooms, water, parking with security cameras. No water, services or restrooms in that section along the trail. The trail was very nice till we approached Turley. Litter was then everywhere along the trail and dogs wandering .
We rode the entire 16.8 mile trail from the OSU-Tulsa trailhead to the end of the trail ~1.5 miles north of Skiatook and back. It’s a blacktop trail the entire way. The banner for the trail on Trailink says there is a bridge out. That is not correct. The first 4.5 miles heading out of Tulsa goes through some gritty landscape with a lot of litter along the trail. Once you clear the urban area, you head through a mix of pasture and farmland, some wetlands, and a few rural towns. The trail is in good shape and appears to be well maintained. Quite a few crossings over adjacent roads, but few are high volume. Not as scenic as many trails that we have ridden, but a pleasant, flat ride.
It is a great ride in some places. There is still a bridge out so you have to take a detour which is dangerous. You also have to cross a lot of streets. We always stop at the little park in the center of Sperry where they have free WiFi courtesy of the Cherokee nation. There is also too much trash but at least someone took away the broken toilet.
This trail runs through the northern part of Stillwater. I entered the trail at the SW corner of Boomer Lake Park and rode a combination of the street and the walking/biking trail to the north side of the lake. There is a well marked walk way across Airport Road. Follow the paved trail up for a mostly shaded and peaceful ride. The trail ends in a pretty neighborhood that you can ride easily through and admire the manicured lawns. Go back south around the east side of the lake, find the trail under Lakeview to go south. It will be extended farther south soon!
Beautiful scenery, well kept, not crowded. Love all the bridges!
Rode from skiatook to Sperry. So easy and flat and pleasant. Lots of green trees and nice bridges and country roads. Interestingly this trail is NOT on all trails
We started at Jo Allyn park and enjoyed the shady ride heading northwest. Spotted two cardinals, a doe, and many grey squirrels.
I read the reviews and they all had merit; there is horse poop on the trail, a bridge is out with no warning or signs of being repaired and there are multiple streets to cross and some of them are fairly heavily trafficked—on the plus side, it’s also very lovely, shaded for long stretches and not busy. Slight grades, easy to run/walk/bike. I ran 10 and I saw only one bike and two walkers. Overall very pleasant—no lighting along trail so not a good spot to go before or after the sun comes or goes.
