Flint Hills Discovery Center
The Flint Hills Discovery Center is a dynamic tribute to the last major stand of unbroken tallgrass prairie. This 35,000 square foot must-see attraction includes interactive exhibits highlighting the science, history and culture of the ecoregion from pre-history to present day.
Experience the sights, sounds and smells of the prairie re-created with stunning authenticity in the 4-D immersive theater experience, Tallgrass Prairie: Tides of Time. Or take a stroll through the Prairie Garden Terrace and Trail to see beautifully landscaped native prairie grasses and wildflowers.
Explore Prairie Playscape, a hands-on exhibit for kids. Design a model railway, build a stone fence, jump on a saddle, crawl through the prairie climber – this space combines science and culture to inspire young minds and encourages kids to explore the wonder of the Flint Hills.
The Flint Hills Discovery Center is the perfect starting point for an exploration of the magnificent Flint Hills of Kansas.
