Attractions
There are many interesting and beautiful places to visit in Harding
County. Enjoy our abundant sunshine and fresh air. View our
scenic, unspoiled countryside, clear skies and wide-open spaces.
- Mills Canyon Located in the
Kiowa National Grasslands, along the Canadian River, this is a scenic
attraction you won't want to miss. Stroll among the scattered
grape vines and fruit trees and ruins of the hotel -- all that remain of
one man's dream.
- Canadian River Canyon
Hikers can trek down and back up the Canadian River Canyon road -- but remember
to take plenty of water! This may be the plains, but it's still 5,878 feet in
elevation. Walk along the river and admire the colors that contrast with the red canyon
walls.
- Mission of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Church
in Bueyeros
- Immaculate Conception Church at
Gallegos
- Union Church
at Solano
- Abundant
Wildlife
The canyon forms a wildlife island in the prairie for mountain lion, wild
turkey, bald and golden eagles, antelope,
bear, Barbary sheep, ducks and geese.
Early settlers in the area removed most of the game; however, in the 1940s, Mule
deer were reintroduced to the canyon and a small resident herd is now present.
Barbary sheep, native to Africa, were introduced in 1950 and have found this
area to their liking.
Warm water fishing for bass, channel catfish, crappie and sunfish species draws
many a fisherman to the lakes located within the grasslands. The Canadian River
also provides some warm water stream fishing.
