The Urban Hikes KC team enjoys creating hiking experiences that introduce hikers to local history, an up-close view of local art, and other adventures throughout KC!
What you may not know is that one of the integral parts of our hikes is helping our explorers create or develop relationships.
From romantic sunset hikes on the Plaza, to family outings along the Riverfront, or a group of friends enjoying wine after a walk through the Crossroads – our explorers find plenty of opportunities to build on their relationships or create new ones.
Below are some of the experiences we offer and our guide team is always creating new ones!
Bachelorette Urban Hikes
Our guides are always reminded of the deep value of friendship during our Bachelorette Urban Hike. Often we’ll do a rooftop toast to the bride where friends will recall memorable moments and well wishes for the future. The bachelorette leaves the hike with more great memories to cherish!
Neighborhood Groups Urban Hikes

Get your neighbors together for an Urban Hike! We’ve guided multiple groups of neighbors out on urban hikes to explore the Kansas city around them. The group pictured spent a day trekking through KC on the last day of 2021 looking at holiday decorations and learning about the murals that fill midtown.
Corporate Urban Hikes
IMA Financial Group Team Hike Location: Kaw Point, Kansas City, KS
Getting to know more about KC and your coworkers is a win-win! We’ve trekked up and down KC with corporate groups and each hike is tailored to give hikers a new appreciation of KC. An added bonus is that groups also leave knowing more about one another. We’ve found that an urban hike is a welcomed way to liven up the typical corporate team building or team wellness activities.
Hiking with Family & Friends
Loeb Family Urban Hike Location: Russian Hill, Kansas City, KS
Most experiences are better with loved ones and Urban Hikes KC is no different. Just about any hike can turn into a family or friend hike when you invite the right people! Our most popular group hikes are:
Families with little ones: Spray See MO Mural Urban Hike ending with ice cream
Families with teens and older: Crossroads/Westside Urban Hike and the Strawberry Hill Downtown KCK Urban Hike
Each of these allows hikers plenty of photo opportunities with bright murals, natural landmarks, or historic architecture.
Urban Hikes KC is just one way to nurture your relationships and focus on friendship! Book your next outing with friends or family and join us to explore the urban trails. Book your adventure today!
