The Pioneer Bluffs Foundation is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Guided by core values of respecting the land, celebrating history, and strengthening community, Pioneer Bluffs addresses the environmental and social challenges of the future through experiential education.
We invite you to join us in building this place where rich history ignites the imagination with possibility for the future, a place with boundless skies and strong roots.

Whether hiking the nature trail, having a picnic, bird watching, or exploring, visitors can enjoy a quiet refuge found at the historic ranch headquarters.
There is a self-guided tour with history, background stories, and a bit of education about this and other ranches and the generations of ranchers who shaped the Flint Hills. The tour can be accessed using a smartphone on QR codes around the property. Music concerts, barn dances, rancher Prairie Talks, community celebrations, and school field trips happen throughout the year.
