Enjoy the opportunity of a lifetime. Experience authentic covered wagon trips through the scenic Kansas Flint Hills. We operate our trips just off the National Scenic Byways near Council Grove, Kansas, through the last remaining tallgrass prairie in the United States. We have been in business since 1979 and are the only continuously operating wagon train in Kansas.

Let us help you arrange a "destination trip" including a stop at the 8000 acre El Dorado Reservoir at El Dorado, Kansas, or a Friday night chuckwagon supper and cowboy music at Prairie Rose near Benton, Kansas, with an overnight stay before or after your weekend wagon trip at one of the motel-hotels at Council Grove or Cottonwood Falls. Eat at the world-famous Hays House in Council Grove or at the Grand Hotel in Cottonwood Falls.

Choose between a one-day trip with two meals and an evening campfire entertainment, or a weekend trip from Saturday morning to Sunday noon and three meals. Download an application by Clicking Here!

"My children and I have just returned from one of the most memorable and enjoyable experiences we have ever had. A trip on the Flint Hills Overland Wagon Train. From the initial meeting to the return, we have nothing but praise for the organization, good food, entertainment and good company we found. You can be assured we will tell everyone we know that this trip is one not to have missed." - Patricia Joseph, Topeka, Kansas.

THE JOURNEY:

All weekend trips begin with prospective weekend pioneers meeting at 10:00 a.m. at the tennis courts-athletic field in the 300 block of South Neosho Street in Council Grove, Kansas, which is a block north of Custer Oak Park. After an introductory briefing, personal vehicles will join in an escorted caravan to the embarkation point. Vehicles will be parked at the ranch overnight. Camping gear and luggage will be transported to the overnight campsite independent of the wagon train. More detailed instructions and map will be sent with your confirmation after we receive back your application and deposit.
