Today we will be taking a virtual tour of the Konza prairie Nature Trail. You can start at the trailhead by selecting the “1” below. Return to the map to travel between spots on your journey through the prairie.

​

Background:  Most of Konza Prairie is unbroken tallgrass prairie – the most endangered terrestrial (land) ecosystem in the world. Most of the original 170 million acres of tallgrass prairie has been lost to plowing and agricultural development. 

 

Konza Prairie consists of 8,616 acres of prairie and you’ll be able to see much of it once you climb the hill.
