Oklahoma has 32 state parks, some of which are acres large with cabins and community centers and others are small, but still beautiful to visit and bring the family. State parks are the state's way of preserving natural habitats and encouraging people to learn about the nature around them

During the summer time, many of the state parks are littered with people flocking to the water to cool off. But the good news about fall is that hiking trails that stretch for miles still allow you to enjoy some one on one time with nature and rarely run into anyone else.

Some state parks also host events like guided hikes, stargazing nights, and even a few fall festivals at places like the Robbers Cave State Park. Since many of them host events back to back, you may want to plan on camping or renting out a cabin if the park you're interested in has one available.

Check out the list below of the best state parks in Oklahoma to visit during the fall season. Whether it's because of the views, the events or the opportunities you've never had before, each one is a great choice to add to your fall bucket list.
