Neahring Ranch

Trail Overview

This trail follows a narrow ribbon of smooth gravel that occasionally gives way to rocky patches, winding through a dense forest flanked by a sea of open fields. You'll likely spot deer browsing along the roadside as you drive, so stay alert. There are no formal or dispersed campsites, and you won't find trash bins or water sources anywhere on the route. Cell service is sparse, so check your onX app for coverage before setting out.

Difficulty

The trail is maintained to support a range of local use, from daily agricultural traffic by farmers to occasional travelers and outdoor enthusiasts passing through.

History

This route traces the historic heartland of the Flint Hills, a region that has remained largely untouched by modern agriculture due to its shallow, rocky soils--making it one of the last strongholds of North America's tallgrass prairie. The trail crosses land with deep cultural roots--from Native American hunting grounds to working cattle ranches. Expect long views over tallgrass prairie, passing ghost towns, century-old barns, and scenic byways that have carried generations of ranchers and travelers alike.
