Top 5 Active Things to Do in OKC

There are lots of different ways to reach your step goal in Oklahoma. After all, our capital city is one of the largest in the nation in terms of land mass. If you like getting your exercise with a side of entertainment, this might just be the place for you. Here are a few activities you can indulge in to feed your adventurous spirit and your fitness journey right here in OK

We think The Zoo is the perfect place to get your steps in while seeing animals from around the world. Fancy a fun drink? Sip and Stroll takes place every Friday in May and June. Maybe you want to get into nature yourself, rather than looking at it through the glass. We suggest a hike in the Wichita Mountains. You’ll find beautiful views and wildlife up close. On an Explore OKC tour you may catch a glimpse of two 90 ft tall grain silos. These are home to Stoneyard Climbing. You can rock climb inside the silos or on the outside for a view of the city. If you want to stay cool in the summer heat, Explore OKC suggests Riversport. With state of the art water sports facilities, you’ll find endless fun and activity here. Whitewater rafting, kayaking, canoeing, surfing, climbing, biking and even indoor skiing are all on the table.

The Land Run Monument was completed in 2019 after 20 years of work. The installation features 45 figures depicting Land Run participants as they raced to stake their claim in the Oklahoman plains.

Lastly, of course, we suggest taking an Explore OKC tour. We are partial to this option, but for good reason. On our tour you’ll walk through our beautiful city learning about its history and stories. We cover a distance of 3 miles, but don’t worry, the streetcar will provide breaks for your feet along the way. Lace up your sneakers, book an Explore OKC tour and get ready to fall in love with Oklahoma City and exceed your daily step goal.
