Review:
The historic little town of St. Marys is located close to Topeka, where it welcomes day trippers to come and enjoy some great outdoor recreation. Before you set off to hike or cycle you should consider visiting the very informative Indian Pay Station Museum which is located on the site of the original mission which was established around 1846. The Oregon Trail Nature Park is a good place to go hiking or walking– there are three short loop trails to explore. The Sea of Grass Trail will lead you to the top of the ridge which offers wonderful views over the prairie plains as well as excellent bird watching. You can tee-off at the local golf course or have some fun fishing in a nearby lake.
