I really love this place - great trails and views of the Missouri River, close proximity to Weston, camping options, etc. I've been in all seasons and it always has something to offer. If you're into birding, there are a plethora of bird species to discover. The campgrounds are nice and I really enjoyed my experience camping there recently (site 26).

I stopped in the park early this morning and temps were in 20s. Nonetheless I enjoyed the view at the overlook and checked out the tobacco curing barn. Also saw a deer cross roadway in front of me and disappear into the woods. Very cool visit, pun intended.

Easy hike trail if you’re an avid hiker. And there’s no fee for entering the state park! There are options for various trails to get some longer distance in your workout, multiple options such as 1mile loop or 5 miler when connecting trails. There was a family walking it with their little girl and they didn’t seem to have any issues in their sandals. Also the scenic overlook is beautiful. The views are great during end of summer early fall.

Glad to have used All Trails to find the parking lot closer to the overlook. On 10/17/23 the upper canopy of the West Ridge Trail, while following the river has tons of color. The interior part of the loop coming back on the Harpst Trail was much more green. First time here, but surely not our last!

We took the paved trail with a two year old on his bike and a baby in a stroller with jogging trail tires. It is paved but it has rocks, sticks cracks roots so I am not sure that little plastic wheels would do well. It is mostly shaded which was sooo nice. It is a good bit of up and down and has some spots my bike kid walked up or down rather then using the bike because it was very steep. We needed a good bit of water and snack breaks but we all finished. (He does ride daily so although he was exhausted by the end he could make it so if your child doesn’t maybe an extra stroller would be good.) it was a beautiful trail and we look forward to doing it again!

This park is amazing for hiking. Not only does it have something for every level of hiker but it is quiet and peaceful. I'm not sure if we just went on a slow day but for a Saturday you would expect loads of people and chaos. This was not the case. Since we don't live too far from this State park this will become a recurring hiking spot. Looking forward to what Autumn brings.

I love this place! Campsites aren’t too expensive and fantastic walking trails. It’s also nice that it’s so close to downtown Weston to grab dinner/drinks if you want. Don’t forget to see the scenic overlook! It’s worth the short drive to the end of the park and is a very short distance from the parking lot

Very nice state park. Lots of hiking trails and the trails are nicely marked. The campground / campsites are spread out and nestled in the trees.
