Review & FAQ:
The Travertine Creek Trail is a picturesque and easy hiking trail in the Chickasaw National Recreational Area in the foothills of the Arbuckle Mountains. The trails winds along the banks of the Travertine Creek for about one and a half miles, and you will pass a succession of natural rock falls and man-made dams as you follow the course of the creek from the Travertine Nature Center to Pavilion Springs.
You can stop along the way to have an invigorating dip in the natural swimming hole below the Little Niagara waterfall. If you are feeling energetic, you may like to do an addition side-hike to Travertine Island where you can have a picnic at a real rock picnic table.
