What is the highest point in Kansas?
Mount Sunflower, at 4,039 feet above sea level, is the highest point in Kansas. It is in Wallace County, near the Colorado border. Though the location is on private property, visitors are generally welcome. The lowest point in the state, 680 feet above sea level, is in Montogomery County in southeastern Kansas, where the Verdigris River flows into Oklahoma. Much of the increase in elevation from east to west is related to the uplift of the Rocky Mountains, which raised the entire landscape as far east as western Kansas.
