OUTDOORS
If you can do it outdoors, you can do it in Missouri. Containing hundreds of conservation and natural areas, 49 state parks, the vast Mark Twain National Forest, the Ozark National Scenic Riverways, the 225-mile Katy Trail (America's longest rail-to-trail hiking/biking trail) and thousands of hunting and fishing spots to catch any type of wildlife, Missouri is "the place" for the outdoor enthusiast.
With rolling hills and mountains and flowing river valleys, it’s no wonder Missouri is full of beautiful
horseback riding opportunities.
Float down a river or ski behind a
boat. Don't let the landlocked geography fool you. Water sports are huge in Missouri.
Thinking about a relaxing float on one of Missouri's cool, spring-fed streams? Here are some points you need to know in order to make that a safe and enjoyable day.
