Kingman, Kansas

Hunters and non-consumptive wildlife users alike will find plenty to do on Byron Walker Wildlife Area. The habitat is diverse, including streamside woodlands, shrub plots, native prairie and food plots. Most of the grassland has been enhanced with tree and shrub cover strips adjacent to food plots.

Wildlife enthusiasts will enjoy a self-guided nature trail which begins at the northeast corner of Kingman State Fishing Lake. The diverse habitat offers users excellent opportunities to view many varied types of plants and animals. Additional Wildlife viewing is offered just east of the headquarters on the south side of the highway, where a small herd of bison may be seen in the pasture.
