쉬운 애치슨 카운티 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

Great view from West Ridge Trail onto the Missouri River. There is not too much elevation gain to get to this spot, so it is definitely worth the effort for the great views.

This monument was dedicated in 1992 and is situated in a beautiful setting next to Smith Lake. It honors the memory of the 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments of the U.S. Army. Around the monument, there are benches that also offer excellent views of the lake.

Scattered throughout Fort Leavenworth, you'll find many references honoring various soldiers. In this corner near Zais Park, you'll find the one of General Grant.

This old wall is just one of many remnants — or I suppose ruins, technically — of historic Fort Leavenworth. Keep an eye out for the main parade field to the west, and historic Grant Hall to the south.

Merritt Lake is a reservoir on the Trails West Golf Course. It's man-made, and it's a wheelchair-accessible fishing spot as well! Before fishing, be sure to check the rules and regulations for the current season. Local Kansas City regulations dictate when fishing is allowed, the maximum size of the fish you can keep, as well as how many fish you can keep.
