I have some good news and some bad news… the good news is that it is FALL. That being said, what could possibly be the bad news? Well, the bad news is that the season flies by way too quickly, meaning if you are wanting to get out and enjoy the changing colors, NOW is the time. If you want to make the most out fall time in Kansas, grab a hot beverage of your choosing, gas up the car and take this gorgeous fall foliage road trip. (Link to the original map can be found here.)

- Milford Lake (Junction City)
Flickr/Acorns Resort at Milford Lake You know all about the fishing and recreation opportunities at the state’s largest lake… but did you know it looks THIS colorful during the fall?
- Louisburg Cider Mill (Louisburg)
Louisburg Cider Mill Facebook Not only does the Louisburg Cider Mill have beautiful trees and shrubs, they also have a pumpkin patch, corn maze, and shop filled with all types of apple goodness! (Apple cider and donuts, anyone?)
- Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve (Strong City)
Flickr/Patrick Emerson What once covered 400,000 square miles of the country now accounts for only 10,894 acres… fortunately for us, this beautiful tallgrass prairie is located right in our own backyard (and its fall colors are out-of-this-world).
- Council Grove Lake (Council Grove)
Flickr/usacetulsa Tucked away in the Flint Hills is the picturesque Council Grove Lake, which, like Milford Lake, houses a large body of clear water outlined by a variety of trees.
- Lindsborg
Flickr/Patrick Emerson Like this view from atop Coronado Heights? There is more where that came within the gorgeously landscaped city limits of Lindsborg.
- Wilson Lake (Sylvan Grove)
Flickr/Vincent Parsons It is hard to decide what we love most about fall at Wilson Lake… is it the surrounding native prairie? The dramatic cliffs and rocky outcrops? Vibrant shrubbery? We will just say that it is all of the above!
