Kickapoo State Recreation Area has any and every outdoor activity you can imagine, whether it be hiking and horseback riding or mountain biking and boating. There is so much that you can partake in and enjoy. If you love being in and around the water, you may want to spend your time at the park canoeing, fishing, or even scuba diving. Those who prefer land activities may want to go camping or hunting, both of which are allowed in designated areas with proper licenses. The natural beauty of the 2,842 acre recreational area is just stunning and is a thriving habitat for wildlife, flora, and both residential and migratory bird species.
