Kansas in the spring is a wonderful sight that definitely shouldn’t be missed. Everything from flowers to waterfalls comes alive to make our state so much more beautiful than just fields and skies. However, some areas are so beautiful, it almost feels like you’ve wandered out of state to another place that’s simply stunning. This surreal state park in Kansas is one of those places, and we think you’ll love exploring it.
This gorgeous scene belongs to Kanopolis State Park, an area of Kansas nature that we're all falling in love with.
There's just something about this scene that makes me feel like I'm in another world. This 22,000 acre park is more than enough for a full day of exploration and outdoor fun.
Aside from the lush grasses and wildflowers, you'll find so much here to love.
Other than a couple critters, these sandstone caves are smooth and worn from years of adventurers like you climbing inside. Well, adventurers and water.

They're big enough for you to fit inside, if you lay on your stomach.
It seems like there are no flat grasslands, empty dry areas, or anything that you'd find around Kansas normally. Instead, you get to see the surreal Smoky Hills area of Kansas; one of our most beautiful regions.
Another cave here is popular with visitors, covered in carvings and worn into a slide form from plenty of climbers.
