The 10 Best Biking Trails in Kansas, Kansas

September 8, 2021 Weston Hennigan

See a buffalo up close, live like a cowboy for a day on a working cattle ranch or visit a stagecoach stop on the Sante Fe Trail are just a few of the many vacation experiences possible in this state in America’s heartland. You’ll love the wide-open spaces and the opportunities to engage in a variety of one-of-a-kind experiences in this marvelous state, which has the largest segment of true tallgrass prairie remaining in the U.S. Regardless of where you visit: a major metropolitan area like Kansas City, a college town like Manhattan or Lawrence or engaging places like Wichita, Dodge City and Salina, there are a wide array of attractions and sights nearby. If you want to familiarize yourself with cowboy culture, visit the Boot Hills Museum in Dodge City, dine on all-you-can-eat barbeque and hear songs of the American Cowboy at Diamond W Chuckwagon Supper in Wichita or explore the Dickinson County Heritage Center in Abilene, which has dance halls, gaming rooms and 32 saloons. For outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy hiking, biking, fishing, bird watching and other activities, three of the state’s most popular parks are: Cheney State Park near Wichita; Scott State Park near Scott City and Tuttle Creek State Park near Manhattan.

Linear Park Trail

Reviewed By Q9641DBkarenw

My husband and I have been visiting Manhattan for about 3 months, this is our go-to hiking spot, well maintained, easy to access, nice nature along the trails, nicely marked signs. Some areas are covered and in the tree areas, others not. Nice parking spaces at entrance areas. During the rainy season, there were several locations that had been totally flooded and mud covered the trails, they were quickly cleaned up.

Lehigh Portland Trails

Reviewed By maryfd2017 - Humboldt, United States

This trail is very scenic at any time of year; there are many options to travel, from an old train bridge crossing the Neosho river, to a newer bridge crossing the Neosho river, to picnic tables close to lake, to a fishing hole, to John Brown's cave, to trails following the side of the lake, all very close to shade trees, and nature! My grandchildren just love to explore these trails!
