Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism (KDWPT) regional and district offices will be closed for the Christmas and New Years holidays, Dec. 26, 2016 and Jan. 2, 2017.
Licenses and permits may still be purchased at any of the more than 600 license vendors across the state and you’ll find answers to your questions, as well as licenses on sale at www.ksoutdoors.com.
While most state park offices will be closed through the holidays, parks participating in First Day Hike events may have their offices open on Jan. 1. During the holiday season, park user fees can be paid via self-pay stations, and some gatehouses and camphosts may be available for assistance.
