Kansas is full of gorgeous lakes, but which one is perfect for the awesome vacation you’ve always wanted?
Wilson Lake is the fourth largest lake (by capacity) and is full of things to do. You can enjoy the local wildlife, camp out, fish for bass, or take a hike. Honestly, I can’t think of anything that suits Kansans as much as a trip to the lake. What are you waiting for? Get out there!

They have three hiking trails that range from one mile to 23 miles, so make sure you’re prepared for an extended walk (or bike ride) if you choose the longer one.

Afterwards, make sure you plan a trip to go see the abandoned ruins in the Flint Hills. They’re just amazing!
