There's no reason to skip over this miniature castle outside Lindsborg. It comes with a picnic area, hiking trail, and the feeling that you can see for miles.

Did you know Route 66 runs through the southeast corner of Kansas? If you haven't yet, come check out all the cool things happening down there!

This charming little waterfall doesn't always do much, but after a rain, you'll find it's especially calming.

Here is a place you can watch marbles being made by hand, or just take home retro toys and a sack of gorgeous marbles that'll take you back to the good ol' days.

This "mountain" is a fun photo opportunity and an adventure where the whole family can bond during the trip. After all, what's a road trip without family and friends?

I've heard rumors that they're making a new building for this exhibit, but we still think you should check out what's standing there today. Imagine what it would be like to have a whole family in a house this small!

This museum of natural history has more than its fair share of creatures from years past. Come see fossils of all sizes, and explore what used to be.

This large rock formation with some parts standing 70 feet tall is always a great place to visit for a little while.
