This road, which evolved from the early wagon trails of the 1800s, cuts a diagonal path through the rolling hills of northeast Oklahoma to the center of the state, before heading westward to the Texas line. Along the way, the Mother Road provides an abundance of vintage buildings, roadside attractions and friendly people, who are more than ready to share their experiences of the old Mother Road.
Though Route 66 is closely aligned with I-44 and I-40 across the state,
you can travel almost the entire path on the vintage highway, jogging
over and under the interstates. From the Kansas State Line all the way
to El Reno, most of old Route 66 is designated as a state highway.
