Arboretums aren't common in Kansas, but it's always a good day outdoors when you can relax and stroll through a cultivated tree garden. Who wouldn't want to be surrounded by fall trees?
This park is large and full of trees, so if you like to run or bike for fun, you're in for plenty of room to go.
This beautiful garden doesn't have a majority trees, but the whole place is always stunning in the fall. For a quick day out when the leaves are golden, this is a beautiful spot.
Much of Lawrence is lined in trees, which makes a lot of town look extra beautiful during the fall. Just a simple drive down the road can be a beautiful afternoon.
If you love hiking or fall boating, you'll find that Cross Timbers is a dream. Tree lined waters are gorgeous in autumn shades.
Another beautiful nature center in Kansas, Dillon is a diamond in the rough. There's nothing like watching ducks on the water float on reflections of the leaves above. Gorgeous!
A little unexpected, this park in Wichita has some amazing leaves if you catch it at the right time. It's all about timing!
Any old hayfield can be beautiful in Kansas, as long as the trees they use as windbreakers are turning colors with the rest of the state. Red, orange, and yellow, please!
Even cemeteries are beautiful with some autumn colors framing the scene. Fort Leavenworth's cemetery was already beautiful before, and only looks better now.
Our gorgeous red hills look even redder in the fall when foliage starts to town down the green a bit. It's a beautiful drive, even if you don't ride horseback.
If nothing else, spending a day out hiking through the golden Konza prairie is a worthy adventure. Who wouldn't love amber waves on their hike?
