The trail is wonderful year-round and features both bike paths and pollinator-friendly gardens.

If you prefer a quieter experience, I recommend visiting on weekdays to avoid the crowds.

Good to go for a nice summer day for outdoor activities.

I discovered Gloss Mountain State Park by driving Highway 412 through Oklahoma. It's a roadside…read morestop that can't be missed. And what stands out about the park are the red and green tones of the surrounding landscape. I had a few extra hours to spare and was intrigued by the colorful valley that I never expected to find traveling the flat plains of Oklahoma. The closest town to Gloss Mountain is Fairview, OK, about 13 miles from downtown. Arriving here, there is no entrance fee. There is no park ranger. It's come and go as you please. Hours are from dawn till dusk every day. There was actually a sign on the entrance gate saying they lock up at 9pm, so maybe keep that in mind because in this part of Oklahoma during summertime, the sun doesn't set till pretty late. Exploring Gloss Mountain is simple and can take 1 hour or up to a few hours to explore depending how detailed a hiker you are. After entering the park, leave your car in the lot and then there's a hiking trail for you to take. It's called Cathedral Mountain Trail leading you directly to the summit plateau of Gloss Mountain. It's 1.2 miles in total including a 150 step climb. The hike is not hard and along the way up there are a few benches to sit down on and take a rest, or look down on the sights below. The views from high above Gloss Mountain are the big highlight. I was really surprised by the scenery. To have this type of rugged setting with red and green colors took me by surprise. You'd never expect it out of anywhere in Oklahoma. Maybe further west if you were randomly guessing on a map, but overall, the overlooks were pleasant. And once at the mesa top, you can follow the pathway around at your own leisure. It's a circular walk covering most of Gloss Mountain. Because...there's a back section to the summit and you're afforded 360 degree panoramas of the terrain. Also, there was a particular plateau called Lone Peak Mountain, that had an impressive appearance in the distance. Eventually the trails ends at a chained fence but you have another opportunity to sit down on a bench and breathe in some fresh Oklahoma air. And if you're following the trail around, you finish things looking at the eastern part of Gloss Mountain. This area had more of a flat, farmland setting. Still, you can always cross back over to the west side which had the better images. Finally, heading down the mountain takes a few minutes. Before returning to your car and back out on Highway 412, there's a short paved path leading to a plaque honoring Gloss Mountain as an official Oklahoma State Park. It's a good last minute photo opp combining the shrine monument and Oklahoma's state flag waving in the background together. Some extra things to say... - There are vault toilets in the parking lot including a random soda machine. - For mid June at 4pm, it was 105 degrees outside and pretty unbearable temperatures. But you just have to mentally block out the heat from your mind, a task easier said than done. - It was windy at the top of Gloss Mountain. I struggled to use my camera stand and had to stop being so obsessed with picture taking and just enjoy nature. - You can pick up a park brochure next to the front entrance which gives an introduction into what you can expect from a visit. Overall, Gloss Mountain State Park was scenic for being such a random roadside pullover off Highway 412 in the middle of Oklahoma. The red and green vista point perspectives provide guests with that special sightseeing factor. In the end, it made the decision for me to stop here and explore for a little while, a rewarding one.
