About Fall River State Park

Six named trails, including Casner Creek, Turkey Run, and Catclaw, wind through the 1,107-acre grounds near the Flint Hills, taking their names from features of the local terrain. The park sits along Fall River Lake, a 2,450-acre reservoir that supports swimming, boating and waterskiing, and lends the park its name. Camping and picnicking are also available on the grounds.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
