We rode our bikes on the trail today and we were so impressed! We drove out from southern Overland Park to ride it. We loved that it is very well maintained and the scenery is gorgeous! It's an amazing 16 ish mile ride. Prepare for some hills and bring plenty of water! I can't wait to come back in the fall when the leaves turn. We did have trouble finding the start point but once we did we realized it was right there across from the Argosy Hotel check in area.
We did an amazing ride from Rantoul to Vassar, 32 miles, stayed overnight at the Lamont Hill Resort. We rode back the next day. The trail is beautiful but very rustic with loose rocks and sticks all around. It's relatively flat so be prepared to pedal the entire ride. There is no water source or a good restroom from Ottawa to Vassar. Bring lots of water and don't be afraid of doing your "business" off the side of the trail. We wanted to start the adventure in Osawatomie but we didn't want to deal with the detour so we parked in Rantoul. No issues with parking overall at the trailhead in Rantoul.
My wife and I rode this trail! It was beautiful!
My wife and I rode this trail. We both really enjoyed it!
It was a warm (82 degrees) March day with light winds when we rode from Osage City to Vassar and back, a total of 25 miles. We parked at the 5th Street trailhead in Osage City. Be sure to park on the north side of this little city park so that you have direct access to the wide, paved trail that takes you east. Bathrooms with flush toilets were available. Once out of town, the trail is wide (we rode two abreast) with a firm base and fine gravel. Sticks littered some areas of the trail. We picked up several goat head thorns but suffered no flats. This section of the trail mostly cuts through pasture and broke ground typical of the eastern edge of the Flint Hills. We enjoyed the scenery. The trailhead at Vassar offers only parking; there are no bathrooms, no water, no picnic tables, etc. Smoke from a number of prescribed burns was visible in the distance but none was near enough to the trail to affect us. This activity is something to be aware of in early spring; the smoke from one of these burns can be quite thick so you probably wouldn’t want ride through it. Overall, a great section of trail to ride; five stars!
Flint Hills Park Trail. It was a beautiful February day; 68 degrees! Started @ Orlis Cox Sports Complex in Ottawa. Rode to Pomona and back; 21 miles round trip. This section of the trail passes through farmland (broke ground) and treed areas, alternately. Some of the trail is next to an active rail line. One safety-engineered highway crossing. Well-maintained trail; kudos to the maintenance team. Wide trail; rode side-by-side, which we enjoy. Fine gravel surface. Some leaves and sticks on the trail in spots. Rail trail; no steep grades. Fantastic bridges; new, clean, wide, perfect surface! Trail head in Pomona had lots of parking and a unisex outhouse in excellent condition. To the people who rode bikes or horses on the trail when it was wet/soft - shame on you. In summary, a great ride; We will definitely ride this section again in the future! 5 stars.
We rode from the North Lawrence parking area (which is tricky to find) to the east end of the levee trail. Then from there we rode to the River Front parking area before returning to our starting point. There were porta potties at each trailhead. The trail surface is compacted gravel. The wide trail is elevated above the surrounding area which enhances the view but which also gives you more exposure to the wind. The trail crosses under the Massachusetts street bridge. We enjoyed the east portion of the trail in particular because we had river forest on one side and farm fields on the other. We plan to ride this trail again in the future.
We rode from 119th St trailhead to the 135th St trailhead and back. There are excellent parking areas at each trailhead. Porta-potties were available at trailheads. The paved trail surface was excellent. There were some steep punchy climbs as the trail went from one side of the cedar creek valley to the other. At the time we rode the trail ( December 2025) there was a pipeline construction project underway. The construction crossed the trail in 2 spots but the temporary gravel surface was passable. The trail had us feeling that we were out in the wilderness..
This trail was absolutely a delight to ride. We stayed in Council Cove in an rv park by the trail. We rode 18 miles out and back. We rode past Bushong and almost to Allen. I wish we would have had more time to do more of the trail. Fall is my favorite season and the countryside was beautiful!!
Nice wide path for both biking & walking. Starting at the tennis courts for easy secure parking works great. Very clean, no issues with feeling unsafe or homelessness. Connects with Indian creek trail so can ride or walk for a long ways.
