About the

America's longest "rails to trails" project, the former MKT rail line, is a flat, scenic trail meandering over 225 miles from Clinton to St. Charles, MO. It's ideal for hiking, running, or cycling on just about any kind of bike. A popular travel destination, it's part of the Adventure Cycling's Lewis & Clark route as well as the American Discovery Trail.
