Kansas City History & Art Urban Hike

We start out at the Ruiz Branch in the historic Westside neighborhood. We’ll share the history of the area, see vibrant murals and climb up hidden steps. We walk over an artful bridge with a spectacular West facing view and also get a picture worthy skyline view from Observation Park. We circle back to the Ruiz Branch.

Please note this hike covers 2.5 miles includes a long set of stairs and is a little hilly. Participation is limited to 25 and each participant will need to sign a waiver.
