About Little Jerusalem Badlands State Park

Chalk badlands formations rise across 330 acres of protected land owned by The Nature Conservancy, a rare geologic feature in this part of Kansas. The park preserves these eroded bluffs and spires, which sit roughly equidistant between Oakley to the north and Scott City to the south. Its small size reflects a focus on safeguarding the formations themselves rather than surrounding acreage.

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