Middle Spring is 8 miles north
of Elkhart on Kansas 27, and about 1 mile west on a dirt road through Cimarron
National Grassland to a small enclosed park on the north side of the road.
After Lower Spring, Middle Spring was the next reliable water source for
travelers in the Cimarron Valley. This made it a major stopping point and
a campsite on the Santa Fe Trail. The USDA Forest Service manages the national
grassland.
