“Just Off the Trail”
Klondike Park
Just off Katy Trail State Park in the southwest portion of St. Charles County, you can find a great hideaway at Klondike Park.
The land that Klondike Park sits upon was originally the Klondike Quarry. Development of the park began in December of 2001 after the St. Charles County Parks and Recreation Department received supplemental funding from the federal Land and Water and Conservation Fund and the Recreational Trails Program.
After a few years of “remodeling,” the new park offers incredible views of the Missouri River valley, scenic trails that surround the park, picnic and camping areas, boat access to the Missouri River and a trail connection with to the Katy Trail.
Klondike Park includes the Curt Loupe Conference Center as well as a playground and six camper cabins. Camping is available year round at the park and sites can be reserved up to six months in advance of the arrival date. Rates for the campsite range from $7/night for a primitive campsite to $65/night for an eight-person cabin. For more information, contact the park at 636-949-7535 during regular business hours or 24 hours a day at www.stccparks.org. The park is located approximately 14 miles south of Hwy. 40/64 on the east side of Hwy. 94.
