Dee Koestering Park,

1703 Marshall Road, Kirkwood, MO 63122

"Absolutely beautiful park to go hiking in. Paved trails, but if you're careful..you can find some pretty cool trails that aren't paved. Will definitely be a family place we always visit!"

"Great spot for a quick hike. Not too crowded. Very hilly, with limited rest stops, so I'd rate this as moderately difficult. Limited parking and alot of road noise from interstate 44. Plenty of wildlife to be seen though. No bathroom, but there access to water at the trailhead. The first hill is brutal! And the overlook isn't all too scenic. Get off the paved trail and down into the valley for the best scenery, definitely worth a few hours to look around."

"This tucked away walk is nice but not grand. It's a short walk to the lookout which is paved and a footpath which goes into the quarry. The lookout isn't amazing but has some good info about the place and historical accounts. The footpath is better as you get to see how the rock was quarried and there are blocks leftover from when it was active. Overall not really a park with playgrounds and not a long walk. It does have a steep up and down. If you are interested in an old quarry this would be a good spot to visit and it's ok for kids. No bathroom was on site."

"Sad to day but this is one of the worst trails I've ever been on. The trail was completely neglected and overgrown. And the scenic overlook didn't have much of a view. The only redeeming factor to this park was the convenient location."

"Small park with quite a bit of highway noise. It basically sits in some peoples' backyards so you don't really get the "in nature" feels. Surprising amount of wildlife though, and the little trail is nice and has some opportunities for climbing large rocks left over from the quarry days. Worth going once."
