King's Creek Loop Trail is a gorgeous trail that spans 4.6 miles which isn't too long, but takes a while to climb over. Rocks, footbridges, and plenty of foresty areas await you in one of the most beautiful areas of Kansas.

It's no secret that we love Wilson State Park, and all 7.2 miles of this beautiful loop around the lake is great for mountain biking as well as hiking. It's a little tough to get over but shouldn't be an issue for experienced hikers.

Pat Plumer/AllTrails

14 miles of point-to-point trail over and around a rocky path makes it a little tough to navigate, but the views are too stunning to pass up. Look out over the lake and enjoy the payoff.

Kyle Grandy/AllTrails

8.4 miles of loop trail at this national preserve is full of stunning views. You get wildflowers, miles of open prairie, bison, and more.

Liz Fair/AllTrails

This little known state park has a great 5.8 mile mountain bike trail that's a good challenge for those who are sick of the plain old level trails. Get some excitement in your adventures! (Safely, of course.)

Though it's only a 2 mile loop, it's a good running or hiking trail with plenty of birds to spot along the way due to the tree cover.

Granger Meador/AllTrails

Last but not least, a 7 mile loop that's full of trees, gorgeous views, and Toronto lake.
