Robbers Cave State Park is a state park in Oklahoma noted for its sandstone cave system and rugged, forested landscape in the Sans Bois Mountains.

The park offers outdoor recreation including hiking on trails, rock climbing on sandstone bluffs, and seasonal camping and picnicking around wooded recreation areas. The cave complex is the park’s signature feature and provides short interpretive trails and viewpoints.

Local tradition associates the caves with 19th century outlaw activity, which influenced the site’s name, and the area was later set aside for public recreation and park development in the 20th century.

The park lies in the hilly Sans Bois range of southeastern Oklahoma near the town of Wilburton, set among mixed forest and sandstone outcrops.

• Main attraction: The park is known for a system of natural sandstone caves and cliff shelters formed in Pennsylvanian sandstone, which are the namesake feature.

Robbers Cave State Park is about 9 miles southeast of Wilburton, accessible via US‑270 and local county roads. The park is well signed from the nearest towns and has on-site parking at the main visitor areas.

• Explore the cave and the creek trails in the cooler morning hours to avoid afternoon heat.
• Check for ranger-led programs about local history - they often include the cave's outlaw lore.
• Reservations for cabins and campsites are recommended in summer.
