erry State Park, nestled into the forested hills of northeast Kansas, boasts a 12,500-acre reservoir and an 11,000-acre wildlife area nearby. Horse riders appreciate Perry State Park’s upland forest riding trails. These 16.5 miles of intertwining trails were designed specifically for horses, although hiking is also welcome. Campers will enjoy views of the lake and can launch their boats at the two boat ramps or set sail with their catamarans from Hobie Cove campground. Perry Wildlife Area offers extensive wetlands that attract waterfowl each fall. The wildlife area is a great location for birdwatching, hunting and simply exploring the area’s natural landscape.
