Info

Today we’ve come to Beavers Bend State Park, located in the mountainous region of south-east Oklahoma in the United States. The 'bend' referenced in the park's name is a nearly 180-degree turn in Mountain Fork, the river that runs through the park. Mountain Fork was dammed to form Broken Bow Lake, one of the largest freshwater lakes in Oklahoma. There are lots of hiking trails in the park and a train that runs through some of the park's scenic areas as well. Other popular activities here include boating, fishing, horseback riding and golfing.
