Good morning,
I am looking for scenic hike in south east Oklahoma. Me and a few friends would like to hike in to a campsite and camp for the night with some fishing if possible. I would prefer the trail be easy to moderate. Any good suggestions?
Thanks in advance, Casey

Beaver's Bend would fit the bill. There is a nice back country campsite along the Lower Mountain Fork, I remember it being a fairly short hike in (3-4 miles?) along the Skyline Trail. Fishing in the river can be pretty great at times for stocked trout. I usually try to go in the winter to avoid the crowds, which I've heard can be pretty bad in the spring and summer.

I love the Cedar Lake campground in the Ouachita National Forest. It's a Forest Service campground with excellent facilities and is a trailhead for the Ouachita Trail. There's also the Horse Thief Springs loop trail that's a 2 nighter loop. I love this area and hike it all the time in the winter.

Forgot to mention where it is. It's in Hodgen, Oklahoma and the Ouachita Trail parallels the Talimena Scenic Drive

You might also consider Lake Texoma. I was on parts of this trail many years ago and it's wilderness-ish and moderate in elevation change as it goes around the lake. Swimming was muddy as I recall.

Another is the Greenleaf Lake trail at Greenlee state park. It's an 18 mile loop trail for backpacking

If you're still looking you should check out Robbers Cave State Park. Choice of trails and 3 lakes.
