About the Location

Riverside Escape

Nestled along the west bank of the Arkansas River in Wichita, Indian Hills Greenway offers a peaceful nature retreat within city limits. Dating back to 1951, this scenic strip stretches between 9th Street and 13th Street, born from what remained of the original Indian Hills Park area after McLean Boulevard's construction along the river.

Connected Green Space

This greenway isn't just a standalone park - it's a vital thread in the fabric of Wichita's recreation network, linking various parks across the city. If you're looking to reconnect with nature without venturing far from downtown, this riverside corridor is a good option.

One of the park's highlights is its section of the Arkansas River Bicycle Path. This segment connects to a larger 10-mile trail system following the Arkansas River, making it excellent for cycling enthusiasts, casual walkers, or anyone wanting to enjoy waterside views on their daily exercise route.

A Vision Realized

When you stroll through Indian Hills Greenway, you're experiencing the fulfillment of L.W. Clapp's 1920s dream - creating accessible natural spaces where Wichita residents could enjoy the outdoors without lengthy travel.

Today, this greenway is an important part of the nearly 5,000 acres of parkland under the Wichita Department of Park and Recreation's care, offering a glimpse of riverside tranquility to locals and visitors alike.
