Oh Manhattan! Oh-so-tremendous outdoors

bikes_lake.JPGKansas provides a beautiful landscape for outdoor activities, with an abundance of space on Manhattan's doorstep. Location-wise, Manhattan is tucked into the lovely, rolling Flint Hills of the Great Plains. A drive from eastern locations drops a traveler into a scenic, plentiful valley. Coming from the west, catch a striking glimpse of the Kansas River, which meanders east into the city.

Kayak the Kaw. Golf at wonderfully scenic Colbert Hills. Pop out to the Konza. Tuttle Creek activities are always in season. Hunt, fish, take the dog for a run ... options exist in, around and just outside of Manhattan. Reminisce on the beauty and plan your return for another trip.
