Hiking Missouri

With over 1000 miles of trails, 92 state parks, Mark Twain National Forest, and the nearly completed Ozark Trail, the Show Me State has much to offer. The rolling hills of the Ozark Mountains are accessible to hikers of all skill levels, and Missouri's rivers and waterways create beautiful bluff views and incredible caves throughout the state. Many parks and trails are within a couple hours drive of major metropolitan areas, meaning a beautiful Missouri hiking trail is always close by.Look inside to find: *; Hikes suited to every ability*; Mile-by-mile directional cues*; Difficulty ratings, trail contacts, fees/permits, and best hiking seasons *; An index of hikes by category from easy day hikes to hikes to waterfalls *; Invaluable trip-planning information, including local lodging and campgrounds*; GPS location for each trailhead*; GPS-compatible maps of each trail
