1. Lake Murray State Park, Ardmore

Lake Murray State Park has almost 1,000 acres of trails in Ardmore, with different kinds of terrain perfect for your next off-road adventure. You’ll find over 10 miles of challenging tracks specifically built for dirt bikes. The trails vary in size, from around three to six feet in width. The tougher trails have deep ruts, potholes, and debris to create the ultimate obstacle course. There are some camping areas also if you’re looking to extend the fun. Just make sure to check out their website for closures and other important notices before you choose a day or weekend to go.

2. Oklahoma Motorsports Complex, Norman

This complex is a favorite for all levels of dirt bike riders. Both regular races and practice sessions are held there, so you can use the track when an event isn’t being hosted. You’ll find tracks for beginners, intermediate riders, and more advanced racers. Beginners can learn the basics on the pit bike track, while the other tracks are more of a challenge. They’ve recently started a motocross school for beginners, as well as for pros, and there’s a bike shop on the site. You can time your visit to line up with one of the races, or one of the other events hosted there, to help you make the most of your visit. Just call ahead of time to reserve a spot.
