Kansas Rocks Rec Park (KRRP) Quick Guide

An Overview of Kansas Rocks Recreation Park. See what the trails are like, popular obstacles, and park amenities. Visit ksrockspark.com for more information!
Kansas Rocks is a 220-acre 4x4 park located South of Mapleton, Kansas.
Kansas Rocks has over 65 trails and obstacles. Trails are rated beginner to expert and increase in difficulty with rain. The trails are made of loose rock and sticky mud.
Hill climbs, rock gardens, boulders and muck, there’s something for everyone at Kansas Rocks. Stock rigs to custom buggies, all wheelers have a blast.
No park is complete without a Carnage Canyon, and Kansas Rock’s version lives up to the name. A valley of boulders leads to a several climbs and offshoots that have been rutted out from rain and rubber. Headwall is the crown of the canyon.
Zuke’s Squeeze is a muddy and steep hill climb that ends with the choice of either a sheer rockface, or a large notch and boulder field. Lots of bumping and rocker protection are key to this obstacle. It’s an easy place to roll.
Beartracks is a new trail at the top of the park. It’s a muddy creek run with many opportunities to flex and spin your tires.
The Rock Garden is a boulder field by the entrance. It features large and loose rocks, tight turns, and plenty of surprises. An annual amateur crawling competition is hosted here, open to both 4x4’s and UTV’s.
Troxel’s Trough is an obstacle that is known to swallow rigs. A creek pools at the base of a 10’ mud climb, which makes this pit a great place to put on a show. Expect to get stuck so bring a buddy.
Rust Bucket starts with a pool and quick climb, then turns to a bog and through a rock garden with multiple routes. It’s my favorite trail to start the day.
Kansas Rocks hosts many annual events that draw several hundred rigs and visitors. Sponsors find ample exposure with the friendly crowd. Frostbite, Crawlfest, Creepy Crawl, Wheeling For Toys, and a 101 course are some of the major events. They often feature a catered meal and a generous raffle.
Park amenities include restrooms, eating areas, event shelter, kids play area, and air compressor. Primitive camping is available and hotels are close by. Lake Francis has cabins, hook-ups and showers.

so many memories made here. dont go anymore but my dad was one of the first members way back. changed so much

[@Berserkeroffroad]

+brady miller The park has gotten pretty big, in the sense that trails are getting more challenging. Even from 3 years ago it's changed.

[@fatcatt3981]

Looks like a great place to go and play.

[@Berserkeroffroad]

the best of Anapolis It's a ton of fun. Who knew that Kansas wasn't entirely flat.

Went here today, explored for 4 hrs, and didn't hit any tree's, 😂, my Jeep amazed me, no black trails but lots of blue, need. Some mods before trying the hard stuff.

[@sirtubemaster]

One day i will make it out to this place!

[@Berserkeroffroad]

sirtubemaster It's a blast! Hit me up when you go and I'll get a group together.

Me and some friends want to go there sometime and camp one night. What trails do you recommend we have lifted trucks with 35s? Also would you recommend us coming even though it is 3hrs away. Like is the trails fun and would last two days, is the park maintained and not rutted out every where because of continues use. Thanks

[@Berserkeroffroad]

supermicroracer2 You guys would have a blast. Two days would be adequate to wheel the entire park, depending on the size of your group. When the groups get to 5+ rigs, you'll be lucky to hit half of the park from all the stopping & watching. Without knowing what your rigs are like I can't say which trails to hit. I've wheeled there in groups with just about every kind of rig, and everyone has a good time. The park is very well maintained. They routinely grade the main loop and they host trail maintenance days with local 4x4 clubs. It's worth the 3 hour drive for you.

[@supermicroracer2]

+Berserker Offroad OK thanks will be up there sometime.

[@sumdumguy7197]

How come nobody ever asks what it costs each day to get through the gate

[@thereluctanthipster9714]

I was wondering the same, I can’t seem to find any info online.

[@sumdumguy7197]

@@thereluctanthipster9714 20 a day for the driver, 5 for passengers, gotta sign a waiver so if you crash or die the park isn't responsible, cheaper than worlds of fun, and lots more fun, but hopefully you avoid seeing the world upside down
