Guthrie

For a genuine Central Oklahoma experience, be sure to venture beyond Guthrie and explore the cultural and scenic treasures that this region has to offer. To explore the area in even greater depth, head 16 miles (26 kilometers) to get to Edmond. Here you can visit the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO) and Oak Tree Golf Club.

About 30 miles (48 kilometers) to the south of Guthrie is Oklahoma City, a regional center where you go see Mittie Cooper's White House Gallery, Cox Convention Center and Oklahoma State Fair Arena (The Big House). And don't head back to Guthrie until you've checked out Oklahoma City's Celebration Station, Oklahoma City National Memorial and Pole Position Raceway.

Spend a few hours exploring Central Oklahoma's history museums. These are good places to explore, particularly when the weather is less than perfect.

If your picture of a great break is working up a sweat in the great outdoors, then check out one of the many quad biking and horse riding experiences the Guthrie area has to offer.

When booking your vacation to Guthrie, it's handy to remember that the closest major airport, Will Rogers World Airport, is situated in in Oklahoma City, 35 miles (56 kilometers) away.
