There are other routes to get to the trial head. One is Old Highway 51 or accross the dam which is Hwy 151. Watch out for sharpe sandstones and enjoy the ride.

There is construction blocking the road so you
can't even get to the trail head.

Trails are fun for all levels. Spend an hour or three. Easy to navigate. If you' re in Tulsa, ride it. More fun than Turkey, and much less traffic on trails. Smooth and flowy, with some rock gardens. Single speed friendly!

Rode on sunday, second time out here. I really enjoyed the trails, much less crowded and better maintained than Turkey Mtn. I did the whole loop (all 4 levels) in little under 2 hours, thats stopping for lunch too, so several loops could be done in a days ride. There are nice technical sections on the advanced and "expert" loops and fast smooth downhills on all loops.
I recommend anyone in an hours drive from here to check it out. There are other things to do in this area. At the bottom of the biking/hiking area, is the Keystone lake dam which allows striper and catfishing. There is also ORV riding along the river, a sandy fun little spot that I have ridden my 4-wheeler at. Also across the highway from all this is Keystone State Park campgrounds.

Several of the above posters referred to ATV traffic.
Take this as definitive: if you encounter ATV or
motorcycle traffic you are in the wrong area. Their
is a designated area on the south side of the
Arkansas river for motorized vehicles and is
located north of old highway 51. The area referred
to here is south of old highway 51, east of highway
151 and north of the BNSF line. 100% singletrack,
well maintained ranging from beginner to
advanced. Total trail system is about 7 to 8 miles.
Sandstone and mixed sandy soils, drains very well
after a rain. Underbrush generally less dense than
nearby Turkey Mountain making it cooler to ride
during summer months. About half the time I ride
there I don't see anyone else.
Enoy!

Great place for riders of all skill levels. There are 3 seperate trails marked beginner, intermediate, and advanced. There is a turn off from the advanced trail for "experts". Although I have yet to find such a thing. Overall experience has been great. There are a couple ponds you can stop at and enjoy. If you ride all the trails together it should equal roughly 8 miles.

The 1st two previous posters rode some ?trails? by the Arkansas river bed. The trails this site is talking about are up on the side of the mountian, bordering the railroad. They are rocky, steep, a few roots to jump over, loads of fun. Enough to keep you busy for a couple of hours, and well worth the trip.

Both previous posters couldn't have ridden the actual mtb trails. The area they are in is off limits to 4 wheelers and the singletrack is tight enough that they couldn't get through. the parking lot is next to the highway across from the state park entrance. Fairly new trail with a mix of easy and more difficult trails. A good mix of smooth singletrack and rocky terrain. Some good technical climbs and short downhills. 3 loops, The expert being about 5.3 miles. If you can average 8mph you are pretty good. Very well maintained. A new section has just been added to the expert loop which will be very fun when broken in.
