Twin Hills Off Road Park

About Twin Hills Off Road Park

Twin Hills Off Road Park is a privately operated off road riding area near Mapleton, Kansas, in the southeast part of the state. It opened recently and is still expanding, with trails being cut as the park develops. Unlike some off road parks in the region, Twin Hills welcomes the full range of machines: ATVs, dirt bikes and side by sides are all allowed.

A New Park Built by Hand

Twin Hills is one of the newest off road destinations in Kansas. The grand opening drew riders from across the region, and since then the operators have continued adding trails rather than standing pat on the original layout.

The park is family run, and that comes through in the reviews. Riders consistently mention the hosts by name and describe the atmosphere as welcoming rather than transactional. For a new operation, building that reputation quickly matters more than acreage, and Twin Hills has done it.

Trails are laid out for every level, from riders getting comfortable on a quad for the first time to experienced drivers looking for something that will make them think. Because the trail system is still growing, repeat visitors tend to find something new each season.

Who Can Ride

This is a point worth emphasizing, because it is unusual in this corner of Kansas. Twin Hills allows ATVs, dirt bikes and side by sides.

The other major off road park in the Mapleton area is restricted to four wheel drive vehicles and side by sides, with dirt bikes and quads prohibited entirely. If you ride two wheels or a quad and were planning a weekend in southeast Kansas, Twin Hills is the property that takes your machine. The two parks sit about twenty miles apart, which makes a combined trip realistic for a mixed group hauling different equipment.

Events and Camping

Twin Hills runs events beyond open riding, and the mix has included barrel racing and hill climb competitions. Those event weekends draw spectators as well as riders and give the park a different feel from a standard trail day.

Camping is available on the property. Riders who have stayed over consistently mention it as part of what makes the trip worthwhile, since the drive from Kansas City or Wichita is long enough that a day trip cuts the riding short.

Getting There and Planning a Visit

The park is near Mapleton in Bourbon County, in the southeast quarter of Kansas, reachable off highways 69 and 54. It is roughly a hundred miles south of Kansas City.

Because this is a newer, owner operated park, hours and event dates are posted on its Facebook page rather than on a formal website. Contact ahead at 620-363-1974 to confirm gate hours, camping availability and whether the park is open the weekend you plan to come. Trail conditions in southeast Kansas turn heavy after rain, so a call before hauling is worth the minute.
