St. Joe State Park

Off-roaders, ATV’ers, and adventure riders, St. Joe State Park is revving its engine and kickin’ up clouds of dust. Pack your gear and head to southeastern Missouri, the old “Lead Belt,” where you can hit some of the best off-roading trails in the entire state. There are over 54 miles of sand flats and wooded hillsides for motorcycles, dune buggies, and 4WD trucks to ride. If you want a not-so-dusty activity, there’s plenty here for you, too! Canoe or fish one of the park’s four lakes, swim and scan the shorelines for treasures at Monsanto and Pim Lake, fire up the grill and picnic by the water, or relax at your private, shady campsite. Explore the forest on mountain bike, by horseback, or simply strapped in to your most broken-in hiking boots. And if you happen to be a model airplane enthusiast, there’s a flying field and grass runway just for you. Believe us when we say St. Joe has got it all!
