An abundance of pheasants, deer and antelope make Wichita County a great hunting destination! What a great way to enjoy the great plains vistas and experience the brilliant colors of our wonderful sunsets.
Or...you can enjoy our big open skies on our
beautiful 9-hole golf course. Located on east
Highway 96, the Wichita County Municipal Golf
Course is available for play year-round. And
after a great round of golf, kick back and relax
a while in our new club house facilities.
Wichita County parks provide a great variety of fun
for the whole family. Stroll or roll around the parks
on the walking and rollerblading paths, play a game
of basketball or tennis on our outdoor courts, or cool
off in our newly constructed swimming pool. Picnic
shelters, horseshoe pits, sand volleyball courts and
playground equipment are also available to keep the
whole family entertained.
