The Keeper of the Plains Plaza has such an easygoing, welcoming vibe that I ended up enjoying way…read moremore than just seeing the big statue at the center of it all. The interpretive panels around the paths are actually fun to read and they give a quick, friendly crash course on the history of the Plains tribes without feeling heavy or academic. With the Big and Little Arkansas (pronounced AR-Kansas) Rivers rushing together right below, there is a steady sound of moving water that makes the whole place feel calm even when there are people around. The pedestrian bridges are honestly half the experience. They are cable-stayed and with those tall, clean looking masts and the cables fanning out, it feels light and modern. Walking across gives a great rive of the rivers on both sides and the design makes the approach to the Keeper feel intentional. Almost like the bridges are guiding you to the statue. It is one of those spots where the setting and the structure work together so well that you end up enjoying the walk as much as the destination. [Review 734 of 2026 - 85 in Kansas - 25915 overall]

Even though they had someone trying to rake the course, it would have been quick and effective to just take a leaf blower to it in the morning... Some of the holes were rather technical/traditional and the pace was just ok. The music from the snack shack was family appropriate and we got to wave to the mini train passing by.
