Katy Trail State Park


Whether you are an avid cyclist, a history buff or a nature lover, planning a tour along the 225-mile long Katy Trail is a perfect option for the active vacationer.

Built along the former corridor of the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad, the Katy Trail begins in St. Charles and ends in Clinton. The trail takes visitors through some of the most scenic areas of the state, offering views of towering bluffs, rolling hills and glistening rivers. Following the ambling trail across Missouri, nature lovers can enjoy a wide assortment of wildlife in its natural habitat. History buffs can delight in exploring the small towns that once thrived along the railroad corridor and step back in time as they travel between St. Charles and Boonville, an official segment of the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail.

Communities along the trail offer a range of services to visitors, and the trail is accessible to both mountain and road bikes as well as hikers.

The trail is also open for equestrian use between Calhoun and Sedalia.
