Here’s The Most Scenic Drive You Can Possibly Take In Kansas This Winter

With its prairie setting, winding Flint Hills, and gorgeous surrounding cities, there is no better place to drive than the scenic Sunflower State! However, when it comes to taking a memorable Kansas drive during these chilly winter months, the best road to take is that of the 77-mile-long Kansas Wetlands & Wildlife National Scenic Byway.

Connecting the unique Cheyenne Bottoms with...

...the diverse Quivira National Wildlife Refuge, the Wetlands & Wildlife National Scenic Byway has proven time and again to be a fun and memorable drive no matter the time of year!

With a whopping 60,000 acres surrounding the Scenic Byway, there is plenty to see during your drive, including the colorful sunrises over the marsh and prairie...

...some of the millions of migrating birds who stop by the area each year...

...and a few of the other residents located throughout this 77-mile stretch of highway.

In addition to the incredible nature areas, Wetlands & Wildlife National Scenic Byway also runs past seven beautiful small towns including Great Bend, Stafford, and Ellinwood.

(Remember: The smaller the Kansas town, the better the restaurants and cafes!)
