Within Chisholm Creek Park (the walking trails around the Nature Center) wheels are expressly prohibited. But the K96 Bike Path runs along 2 sides of the park. It would be easy to ride there, stop and walk through the area then ride on along the K96 path. You can find information about the K96 Bike Path at the Wichita.gov site - click the Live & Play link, from the menu that appears choose Bicycling in Wichita , on that page click the Maps link - K96 and Chisholm Creek Park are in the NE Quadrant map.
