An Abundance of Parks in St. Louis County
St. Louis County is home to a treasure trove of parks, each with its own story, charm and surprises. Come explore the unique features of these community spaces, from historic landmarks and nature trails with wildlife, to sculptures, sport fishing and even a dog park named after a heroic search-and-rescue labrador. Discover where to play adult kickball, where swings are designed for parents and children to share and how to play the game of PINGO. You’ll also learn about a park with its own Speakers Corner, just like the famous one in London! Whether you’re a nature lover, history buff, or just looking for new ways to enjoy your community, open your eyes to the rich possibilities in your own backyard.
(NOTE: these are parks run by cities in St. Louis County – it does not look at County-run parks}
