Missouri Rock island Trail

The 47 mile crushed limestone rail-trail connects greater Kansas City at Pleasant Hill to the 240 mile Katy Trail State Park at Windsor. Hikers, cyclists and horseback riders pass through the former railroad towns of Chilhowee and Leeton. More information is at https://mostateparks.com/page/65916/rock-island-spur . Another 144 miles of former rail corridor is being donated to the State of Missouri in early 2018 to create a world-class loop as described by https://mostateparks.com/rockislandlinecorridor .
