A great place for adventure

If you’re looking for new and exciting adventures, then Kansas is the place you want to be. History buffs can explore the state’s legendary cowboy towns or visit Kansas’ countless museums, which celebrate the state’s pioneer, aviation, farming and Native American legacies. Outdoor enthusiasts will be happy to know that Kansas is still home on the range to the American bison, which can be viewed up close at two of the state’s wildlife refuges and along the highways in Western Kansas and the Flint Hills. And for nature lovers, Kansas is home to the largest remaining stand of tallgrass prairie in North America, providing a glimpse of what the continent looked like 200 years ago.

Kansas also boasts two minor league baseball teams, big-time college athletics and the Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, which hosts some of NASCAR’s biggest events. Golfers will find plenty of fairways in Kansas, including the prestigious Prairie Dunes Country Club, which hosted the U.S. Senior Open in 2006. In addition, hunters, fishermen and boaters will find the state’s topography well-suited to their recreational needs.
