Indian Creek and Tomahawk Creek Confluence

This is the point where Tomahawk Creek flows into Indian Creek near Leawood Park. Both creeks have suburban walking and biking trails that follow their winding path through Johnson County, and both the trails and creeks connect here near Leawood Park. The Indian Creek Trail is twenty five miles long while the Tomahawk Creek Greenway trail is twelve miles.
