There is only one place to go when you are looking to take in a breath of fresh air, relax and enjoy the view.

The Four State Lookout resides in the small historic town of White Cloud, Kansas, which has everything to offer when you want to sit back and enjoy the outdoors. The town is located 84 miles northwest of Kansas City, Missouri, on the east side of Kansas. The Four State Lookout is a place on one of the highest parts of town where you can see Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Iowa all at one glance.

The breathtaking view is something that you can't even imagine. There is a raised deck which places you above the tree tops and when looking out over the land, you have a view that can not be seen anywhere else. Also with the view of the four states, in front of you lies the Missouri River.

While in White Cloud, you can also read about and walk along the Lewis and Clark trail to see more of the scenic historic town.
