  • Visit Lake Hefner

    Lake Hefner, a central northwest gem in Oklahoma City, stands as a hub for diverse recreational activities and dining experiences. The lake's trails welcome walkers, runners, bicyclists, and skateboarders, offering stunning views and a perfect backdrop for Instagram photos, particularly at the East Wharf lighthouse. Enthusiasts enjoy sailing and kitesurfing, while the Lake Hefner Golf Course and dining options like Red Rock Canyon Grill and Mama Roja Mexican Kitchen enhance the lakeside experience.

    Water activities at Lake Hefner include kayaking and paddleboarding with rentals available from RIVERSPORT Adventures during summer. Fishing is permitted for those with a license, although swimming is not. On land, nearly 10 miles of paved trails provide scenic routes for outdoor activities, and facilities like Stars & Stripes Park offer sports fields and play areas. The area's ease of access to different sports, combined with the picturesque lighthouse and quality dining establishments, make it a beloved spot for both locals and visitors.
