Going from Ga to Colorado and plan to drive through Kansas. Any suggestions-Not on a schedule. Just sightseeing
traveling through Kansas in June in a popup...
dianne, If you could let me know what highway you are planning on taking into Kansas I could give you some info on some of the more scenic areas of east central and south central Kansas. I know this state has a reputation for being flat,and parts of it are, but there are other areas that most people find picturesque and interesting.

traveling through Kansas in June in a popup...I would recommend the flint hills and the konza prairie. Really an amazingly beautiful part of Kansas... near Manhattan, KS.
Dianne,
Our family stayed at Wilson Lake State Park off I-70 in October in our camper. It was a scenic area and quite pretty. I don%26#39;t know when you are traveling, but the park was nearly empty near the end of October. We had the area we chose completely to ourselves.
I live in Wilson, next ot Wilson Lake just off of I-70. It is not to crowded the first to middle of June but towards the end the 4th of July people start pilling in pretty early to get the good camping spots. The lake is pretty low right now, not much moisture here lately but it is still beautiful. There is a nice scenic route you can take around the back of the lake and through the hills. Along that route I think you can see the Garden of Eden in Lucas, The Oil Museums in Russell, There is a railway museum in Ellis, The Cathederal of the Plains in Victoria and of course a stop in Wilson, the Czech Capital of Kansas, is a must. We have a local store that makes out of this world homemade sausage of every type. Enjoy your trip and enjoy Kansas.
Depending on your intresest, great stops in Kansas include the Chalk Pyramids, the Grassroots Art Center , and the Kansas Cosmosphere.
http://www.kansastravel.org has the details on all three of those, and other fun stops.
Visit Manhattan KS -- the Kansas State campus and eat dinner at the Four Olives restaurant.
