KCCA manages 500 hectares of recreational holdings that provide for the preservation of the natural environment and recreation. The desire for the public to view and experience the various lands of the Authority must be balanced against the Authority’s priority to preserve and protect its environmentally significant landholdings and its own human resource capabilities.
When visiting our various conservation areas, please pay close attention to the posted signage. There are three levels of access: Permissible Use (no permit required); Restricted Use (permit required); Prohibited (no public access).
Permits are available for purchase at KCCA’s Administration Centre, or from May 1 – September 30 at the campground gatehouses. Permits are provided free of charge to members of recognized local nature and hiking organizations.
