The Hefner-Overholser Trail offers a convenient connection between two of Oklahoma City's popular reservoirs. To explore these lakes, you can hop on the Bert Cooper Trails at the northern trailhead or the Lake Overholser East Trail at the southern trailhead. The Hefner-Overholser Trail also provides access to the Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge, a natural treasure of the city.
The scenery on the southern half of the trail is fairly open, becoming densely residential as the trail approaches Lake Hefner. Along the way, the path traces the western border of the Wiley Post Airport, home to the Okie Derby (an airplane race) each August.
Parking can be found off N. Stinchcomb Avenue in the Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge.
