The Elk City Reservoir is a reservoir located east of Elk City, Kansas. The dam that forms the lake was constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It has approximately 18 km2 of water, and 49 km2 of wildlife, and a total of over 80 km of shoreline. There are six hiking trails at the Elk City Reservoir, two of which are notable for receiving a National Trails designation. The scenic Elk River hiking trail is 24 km long, and goes from the west edge of the dam westward to the bridge on Elk River.
