Welcome to a Small Town with a Big Heart
Sedan is situated on business US-166 and K-99 in the beautiful Chautauqua hills of south-central Kansas. Many visitors will visualize this region as the Kansas Ozarks since blue-stem grass and black jack oaks cover sandstone-capped rolling hills. Annually, more than 50,000 tourists visit the area to enjoy the natural beauty of Sedan.
As visitors explore Sedan, they will discover it feels like they never left home at all. Helpful shopkeepers and area residents make it a point to make people feel welcome with genuine hometown charm, a peaceful atmosphere, and friendly conversations. Be sure to experience Sedan because we have something for everyone!
