We all love a good Kansas waterfall, whether it's big or small. Short hikes are a great way to ease yourself into nature this spring, but the waterfall on this little known trail is by far the best part. Come check it out!
Welcome to Indian Rock Trail in Indian Rock Park, hiding out in Salina, Kansas.
It's a beautiful trail that's not too hard to navigate due to well marked paths and its short length.
My favorite part of this 1.2 mile trail, and probably the favorite of many others, is the waterfall, however short it may be.
Of course the waterfall varies in output depending on recent rains, but it's a relaxing sight and sound no matter the speed of the water.
Other parts of the trail you'll enjoy are the walls of rock layers almost like natural shelves lining some areas, and local wildlife finding refuge in this city park.
It's beautiful in any season, of course. Whether there's a little ice around or plenty of green, you'll find this short trail refreshing and one of the best "walks in the park" you'll take.
The park is open sunrise to sunset, and dogs are allowed as long as they are leashed. Make sure you mark this on your bucket list!
You'll find Indian Rock Park and the trail within at 1500 Gypsum Ave, Salina, Kansas.
A great reason to head out into nature this spring is all of the millions of monarch butterflies coming through the state as it warms up.
