The Chisholm Cattle Trail primarily ran from Texas to Kansas, not Oklahoma. It was a major route used in the late 19th century for driving cattle from ranches in Texas to railheads in Kansas, particularly at Abilene. While some cattle might have crossed into Oklahoma, the main trail itself did not extend there. The trail played a significant role in the cattle industry and the westward expansion of the United States.
