Meramec Greenway Trailhead: Lower Meramec Park

"2 mile paved trail near the meramec river. Pleasant . Not too difficult to walk. The views of the Meramec River are beautiful. This morning saw a few fishermen walking in to fish."

"Spent the day with my nephew and since it was nice out, we picked this trail for an easy walk. We enjoyed this paved, nicely shaded trail although he accidentally stepped in some neglected dog waste. There were benches and lookout points to see the river, and lots of butterflies around. Seemed like plenty of parking. If you take your dog please pick up after them!"

"Really enjoy this path when wanting to get a quick walk in. I love that you can walk right down to the river if ya want."

"I found this to be a nice quiet place to walk and unwind from some stress. Both the view of the river and the sound of the wind blowing through the trees were quite relaxing. There are no playgrounds, just walking trails and still views of the Meramec River. The path from one trailhead to the next is 2 miles. Another trail that diverts from the paved path is a little over one mile. There a couple benches along the way. This provided a wonderful spot for an early Saturday morning quiet time to sit and pray. Several people were walking/jogging, riding bicycles, and walking dogs."

"Love these trails! Dogs love them too. The unpaved, wooded trails are great and almost always see some kind of wildlife."
