About the John F. Kennedy Memorial Forest
The John F. Kennedy Memorial Forest, located at 6500 Government Drive in St. Louis, Missouri, is a beautiful park and tourist attraction dedicated in 1964. This 60-acre forested habitat was the first area in Forest Park to be preserved for environmental conservation. With over 3.5 miles of trails, it is a popular spot for runners, bikers, and hikers throughout the year. Birdwatchers also flock to Kennedy Forest, as it is a prime location for spotting over 100 species of migratory birds, including warblers in the spring and late summer. The wetlands within the forest provide a unique habitat for frog species, adding to the biodiversity of the area. Forest Park Forever's Nature Reserve Staff maintain the forest, with support from the Missouri Department of Conservation. Visit the park to enjoy the natural beauty and wildlife that John F. Kennedy Memorial Forest has to offer.

Reviews of John F. Kennedy Memorial Forest
"Best picnic ground in Forest Park. You have to reserve it about a year in advance if you want to get it."
"Hidden gem in Forest Park. Trails are rarely crowded, and the ecological restoration has produced wonderful results. The wooded areas are full of native wildflowers in spring, and the savanna areas are full of native flowers in summer. Urban oasis of wildlife."
"A diamond in the rough!!! I never knew this place existed and was beyond thrilled with not only the snow cone, but the snowballs they sell as well. Friendly, fast, affordable, and they take card!"
"Great place to hike and meditate. Tranquility and Peace are abundant in this hidden gem in the heart of our urban forest."
"About as close to a forest oasis you are going to get within city limits. We were here in the winter so the pictures are not doing it justice. Some parts are deep enough in the woods where you don't see cars or building anymore. Combination of concrete, gravel, and dirt paths throughout. Trails are kind of a cluster that go off in crazy directions without a real loop. If you do the actual quasi loop I thinks it's barely a mile."
