Broken Bow, A Destination for All Seasons

As crisp autumn days give way to the colder temperatures of winter, Broken Bend, Oklahoma takes on an entirely new character in step with its seasonal change. The beautiful mountains that characterize this part of the state lose much of their foliage, making hiking the hundreds of miles of trails that cross the state parks the perfect opportunity for expansive views. On snowy days, hikers can rent a pair of snowshoes and enjoy the sights just as the trappers did hundreds of years ago.

Cross-country skiing is another opportunity to enjoy the occasional snowfall in the area. Pack your skis and hit the trails for the chance to enjoy a whole new aspect of the area’s wilderness beauty. Horseback riding is another wonderful way to take in the winter beauty. Hire a guide for the day and pack into the backwoods with a steaming thermos full of hot chocolate. Along the way, you’ll encounter turkeys, pheasants and other wild creatures. Eagles are known to spend the winter months in the area, so visitors will want to keep an eye on the skies in hopes of spotting these magnificent birds.

After a day on the trails, there’s almost no better way to recuperate than by enjoying local specialties. There are several wineries in the area, as the climate is ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir and other favorite varietals. Take an afternoon to tour the wineries and enjoy sampling their various offerings along with a plate of delicious local cheeses.

Although it may seem counterintuitive, winter is the perfect time to go trout fishing. While some fish species hibernate during the colder months, trout are active and prefer colder water. The six-mile stretch of river from Beavers Bend State Park to Broken Bow Lake is often teaming with trout all through the winter season. Dedicated fishermen are known to pull dozens of fish per day out of the cold river waters, making it the perfect sport for beginners and enthusiasts alike.

Of course, an ideal way to unwind after a long day of winter fun is soaking in a hot tub while enjoying the snowy scene just outside the window. There are a number of Broken Bow vacation cabins in the area, some featuring private hot tubs to go with a secluded forest setting. You can also light a fire in a stone-lined fireplace and relax with a cup of hot chocolate in your hand until late into the evening hours for a peaceful ending to the perfect day.

Whether you love winter sports in particular or just love the aesthetic of enjoying a snowy day tucked safely inside a cozy cabin, Broken Bow has plenty to offer visitors seeking a unique winter getaway. While summer, autumn and spring all present a wealth of outdoor activities, winter has its own special charm that makes a trip to the Oklahoma mountains an opportunity to make memories you’ll savor long after your vacation is over.
