What to do and see in Kansas, Kansas: The Best Golf Courses
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.

Lawrence Riverfront Park is a nature park in the beautiful outdoors on the bank of Kansas River. It is located in the flood plains (on the river side of the levy), so some areas could be water-logged under rainy conditions. The entrance road is attractively bordered with large boulders. Recreational opportunities include: Disc golf course, Hiking trail, Dog park, and Boat launch access to the river. My visit was mainly for hiking, but unfortunately there was no trail map posted anywhere. But a trail was quite visible from the parking lot, and I hiked may be about a mile and a half before the trail became covered with overgrown vegetation and spider webs. It is a nice shady trail under pretty large trees. The trail basically follows the river bank. Sadly, I saw some uncivil people letting their dogs roam free on the trail. I saw a few birds also; one of the birders I came across said the timing was not right due to the hot day. Lawrence Riverfront Park is pretty good for a short visit unless you are getting on the river. The levy trail is also accessible from the park.

Three of us played this gem of a golf course just 15 miles north of Topeka. It is a MUST for any serious golfer in the greater KC metro area! I LOVE the windsocks on the flagpoles for each hole. They're more than decorative since the wind is the course's main defense and it pays to know how strong and in what direction the wind is blowing on each hole. The clubhouse and parking lot are minimal but get the job done. I also Love the use of native, natural elements for tee markers, signs, etc. This is a true test of your golf skills. The native grass along the edges of the fairways will eat up your ball so take less club and make sure you're in the fairway. Enjoy!
