Giant City Nature Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 By the time I reached this trail, it was my fourth one for the day! I was spent but decided to push myself to see what it had to offer. The stone maze here was probably the coolest feature and the reason for its name! I also managed to find several spots with wall anchors for climbing, too.

Rim Rock National Recreation Trail
Park
👍 Beautiful easy hike. There is a slight incline at some points but most of the trail is paved. Be careful some of the paving stones are slippery with moss especially after rain. It was unfortunate the observation deck stairs are removed and you cannot access the lower points of the bluff and rock for...

Devil’s Standtable Nature Trail
Hiking area
👍 Cool place. The trails aren't very long here. Still worth checking out. Grab some shoes with good grip because some of these rocks are going to be slippery all year round.

Inspiration Point Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 This is a quick hike - we're both out of shape and were able to get in and back, plus stop for pictures, in about 20 minutes before the thunderstorm broke loose. The trail is pretty easy, but there are some loose rocks and mud at the end going down to the point which make it a little tricky. The vie...

Todd Fink Heron Pond Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 The trees here are massive and beautiful. The Champion Cherrybark is an absolute wonder to stand underneath. It's gargantuan girth and multitude of trunks is astounding. Many of the Cypress trees within the pond are likely several hundreds of years old too judging by their girth and knees. This trai...

Cape Girardeau Conservation Nature Center
Conservation department
👍👍 Nice free stop with the kids to learn more about nature and history in SE Missouri. Was too cold to do the lake it trails, but both looked really nice. Lots of hands on exhibits and chances to touch and feel animal skins. A handful of aquarium with snakes, lizards, gosh and frogs. Really nice spot i...

Mantle Rock Preserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Great hike! Just under 3 miles when you walk the whole way around. Most of it is pretty easy, no huge inclines. The rock itself is like a natural rock bridge, huge! Kinda in the middle of nowhere, but enjoyably. Watch for snakes!

Green Earth's - Brush Hill Preserve

👍👍 Beautiful hilly preserve just outside of town. The loop trail is a little over a half mile and is a great workout for the doggo and I.

Little Grand Canyon image

Little Grand Canyon
Hiking area
👍👍 Beautiful trail under 4 miles but I would rate this more towards the difficult side than moderate. There are a couple of beautiful overlooks and creek crossings but at around midpoint, the path got too wet and there was an area where we needed to jump down a huge boulder to be able to continue down...

Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center
Visitor center
👍👍 I’m in love with this wildlife refuge. It’s been a source of growth, healing, and ...well, refuge. It’s well maintained and staffed with friendly people. We live a couple miles away and frequently visit the refuge. We take the kayaks, the boat to ski, we fish, we hike the trails, and we communicate...
