The Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism (KDWPT) is charged with "protecting and managing Kansas' natural resources and promoting outdoor recreation and conservation". KDWPT manages the system of 26 state parks, as well as numerous state fishing lakes and wildlife areas. Most Kansas State Parks offer both RV/car camping facilities, as well as primitive camp sites. In general, bicycle travelers may choose either type of facility, depending on convenience and cost (primitive sites usually cost less than full-service sites).
