Description

Added by Trisha Mo

This is one of my favorite places inside Topeka city limits! It is typically not very crowded unless you visit during lunch hours, there tends to be local workers etc. who take their lunch break in the parking lot. There are 2 or 3 picnic tables and a bench as well to relax or have lunch on. There's also a large dock to fish off of. I haven't personally fished at Clarion Woods, however, I see people fishing there quite often. The trails are very easy and peaceful, but very muddy if there has been recent rain or snow. The biggest disturbance is the constant planes that fly over on some days as the airport is nearby.

Relax and Rejuvenate at the Light Center

The Light Center is what I like to consider a wheat oasis. It's located about 30 minutes south of Lawrence, Kansas and offers an amazing escape from the every day grind. It's surrounded by fields of golden wheat as well as trees and rivers. It's a space that you never thought about going to, until you go to it. As soon as I was leaving I wanted to turn around and re-do my stay.The Light Center'...

The Roth trail leads up through wooded areas, and at the top of the hill, a magnificent vista awaits. This connects to a paved walkway through a...

The Konza Prairie Nature Trail is a special beloved attraction in the area. It is set on 3,487 hectare of native tallgrass prairie.

The longer trails are extensions of the shorter trails. So you have a few o...

Konza Prarie-Kings Creek Loop

Starting at the trailhead, this very well-maintained trail is an easy, 4.6 mile loop. This is the second of 3 loops from the trailhead. The longest one is just over 6 miles and connects the Konza Prairie Loop with the Kings Creek Loop and the Goodwin Hill Loop. Don't want the full 6 miler, but are looking for a little more than the shortest loop? As you're heading down the Konza Prarie-Kings Cr...
