Trail Description:
The South Johnson County Trail System consists of 3 combined trails together, the Indian Creek/Overland Park Bike & Hike Trail in Overland Park, the Tomahawk Creek Greenway in Leawood, and the Indian Creek Greenway in Olathe. Since all 3 trails connect together, the combined length is about 30 miles. This trail has some hills, including a 1 mile climb at Quivira Park. This trail has something for everyone, but is mainly for the beginners, with a variety of land including flat land, hills, and lots more.
How to get there:
There is what I consider three good places to hop on for this trail (or at least real good trailheads) for the trail. The first trailhead is at Tomahawk Creek Parkway just a little bit north of 119th St. The trail is on the east side of the road, and there are many places to park and ride. The next trailhead would be in Corporate Woods at College & Antioch. It is inside the park and there is a place to park and ride. The last good place to get on is at the park on the corner of 127th & Blackbob in Olathe. There are many other numerous places to hop on the trail.
Additional Notes:
This trail is really good to go on. It's not boring, and the land really changes every couple o

Good trails. If you don't like the squirrels or the drivers, stay out of Johnson County.

Squirrels are at war with us.He cut me off on the path. I accidently ran over his tail. He chased me trying to bite my foot. I am not an animal hater. They are as rude as your johnson county drivers. Is is rubbing off ? HEHE

There is a small mountain bike trail right off of the
indian creek trail. Its a half mile loop, there are a
couple of log jumps and a small uphill section, and
a few downhihll sections. There is also a small dirt
jump towards the end of the loop. This trail is good
for anyone really- you can continue the loop for as
long as you want, and it has a few technical
sections. The trail head is right off of the indian
creek trail...I go through the leawood state park
entrance and to the right is a bridge, keep going
and the head is to the left.

This isn't what you call Singletrack. Having said that it's really just a paved path about equal to a golf cart path that's used by joggers, roller-bladers and cyclist. Watch out for youngsters and the elderly and be kind to both. Oh, and watch out for squirrels! I actually accidentally ran over one last fall. Sorry little buddy! It's good path for fitness if you don't feel like packing your wheels to your car and driving somewhere.
