• Located in Chandler OK

  • In Google Maps type "Bell Cow Lake Recreation Area "***" (Insert desired Area, A B or C)​and it will take you straight there. 

  • Apple Maps will take you to Area C when you type in "Bell Cow Lake Equestrian Trails"

• Around 40 miles to ride

• Barefoot Friendly and Beginner friendly

  • for a little while you will have to ride a short dirt road if riding on the flat rock trail ​

    • I personally have not ridden red bud trail yet so I am unsure of how many creeks/hills etc if any that are on that side.​

    • Flat rock trail is a nice 8 to 9 mile loop (same trail in same trail out)

• Day ride at Area A,B & C

• Camp at area C ONLY

  • there are a few pens available but you will have to bring your own for majority of the spots. There are nice bath houses on the grounds as well. I have not camped here so I am not sure of how hot the showers stay. There are no trees to pitch a picket line to. From my understanding, campsites are first come first serve. ​

• Map is on OETRA website or here on my website as well.​

Bell Cow Lake is a great place to ride and camp. I have not personally camped here but the campgrounds are really nice and for sure the best big rig friendly place I’ve ever been to. Area C opens up into a large pasture so there is no problem getting a large rig in there. The trail heads from flat rock trail and redbud trail can be accessed from area C. Redbud trail can also be accessed over on Area B. ( I have never been on Area A but Redbud trail is like about 22-24 miles long so I am sure its accessible over there as well) Area C can be closed up sometimes, it was for the longest time when COVID hit, but then they have endurance rides there as well sometimes so the campground will be all closed just for their event, but B is open for riding typically. They have a Facebook page as well and it stays pretty up to date. The trails are barefoot friendly and fun to lope and long trot. Do be aware that in some places after a rain, there can be some boggy spots so please do stay on the trail. One of my friends were barley off of the trail and her horse bogged down to his belly. Luckily, they did get him out.
