Located on the Flint Hills Trail State Park in Allen Kansas, Basecamp Flint Hills offers camping in the scenic Flint Hills of Kansas. BFH is 20 miles north of the world capital of gravel cycling, Emporia KS, and 20 miles east of historical Council Grove. Ideally suited for tent camping, BFH has hammock trees and shaded acreage. Two back-in camper sites with power and water are also available for those who prefer a bit more luxury. This is a community style campground where picnic tables and campfires will be shared with your neighbors. We encourage you to expand your circle and enjoy the experience! Seasonal facilities include an open air, cold water shower and port-a-potty available April through October. Visit our website for a campground map and information on local amenities - www.basecampflinthills.com We do not currently have adequate infrastructure to accommodate horses.

Great place for a biking adventure with kids of all ages. Very nice campground, family friendly, quick to respond when we needed help getting the shower to work. Wish we could have stayed longer! Next time we will!

The land was lovely and clean. Having running water and fire pits with wood already chopped was super convenient for our stay. Thanks for having us.

I enjoyed my evening sleeping under the stars. This is a nice spot to stay while traveling the Flinthills Rail Trail. Will stay there again on my next trip. Thank you Amy.

We loved this campground so much! After hiking the Flint Hills Trail all day, we loved having such a great place to stay. A shower, fire pit and picnic table were all a welcome surprise. And there’s a meat business nearby that sells snacks and drinks. Amy was great at communicating information about the sites and local amenities. We would stay here again!
