Many hikers and bikers in Topeka enjoy the experience of moving along the Dornwood Park Trail. The trail is located in southeast Topeka and accessible from a trailhead on SE 25th Street, east of California Avenue. The recreational trail winds through the heavily forested Deer Creek and features some challenging, rolling terrain, prairie grasses and breathtaking views.

Curtain calls, the lights dim, and ushers are hurriedly making sure that everyone finds their seat before the lights go up at the Topeka Performing Arts Center. This first-class entertainment venue is where all the big shows happen, and fans of all types of music respect the venue's reputation for always presenting a truly unforgettable show. Rock, blues, country, classical and even Christian musical acts have all graced the stage here. In addition to presenting great events, the venue is also available for receptions and corporate functions.
