Johnson County Park & Recreation District: Parks & Facilities: Kill Creek Streamway Park

Kill Creek Streamway Park is part of the District’s ongoing efforts to develop linear parks along major streams in Johnson County. In addition to conserving drainage systems, assisting in flood control, and reducing property damage, the park provides trails and open spaces for such leisure pursuits as biking, jogging, picnicking, and nature hiking.

The Kill Creek Streamway Park Trails consist of 3 total miles of pedestrian and bicycle trails available for public use. The trail exists in two separate segments which are not currently connected. Long-term plans call for connecting the existing segments through the Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant land making a continuous trail from De Soto to Kill Creek Park (see addresses below).

The Kill Creek Streamway Park Off-Leash Dog Area is located at the 95th Street access point.
