    Deeper than I ever could have imagined…read more Narrow entrance off Howdershell starts with pavilion, medium sized playground, parking, restrooms (bring your own soap & towels). Then comes the "rolling" downhill to more parking, shade tree picnic area, nice pond surrounded by handicapped accessible pavilion and decks. The paved trail leads further back through the narrow band of woos between subdivisions till pavement ends. Then stay to the right and a nice flat trail starts for a little distance. Then "Grand Canyon" splits off to a rocky then muddy trail. Go the other direction and weeds end up taking over the trail. Back a paved trail- try the trail to the left- it goes downhill, but not nearly as step as "Grand Canyon" trail. But the trail becomes weedy after awhile.

    This Hazelwood park sits well back from Howdershell Road. Though there's a park sign, the narrow…read moredriveway is easy to miss. This woodsy park actually sits amid subdivisions, but they're largely hidden by mature trees. By the time you wind your way down to the fishing lake in the back you might feel like you're a member of a private camp. On the way to the lake you'll pass a satisfactory but not large playground, picnic pavilion, restrooms, horseshoe pits, and rolling green space. There's also a paved walking track. The city's website lists volleyball amenities but I didn't see them. The fishing lake has a dock for disabled fishers. Missouri conservation department rules apply.

    Truman Park - The park entrance is a narrow driveway, so try to spot this sign on Howdershell.

    In Alton visiting a friend and we wanted to get outside and enjoy the day. She took me to this park…read morefor the amazing view. This park is located in a higher altitude to the places around and that affords an amazing view over the river. There is a steep set of stairs on one side or gradual slope to walk up on the other (also making it more accessible for wheelchairs, strollers, etc). There is a nice Gazebo with benches for weddings and events. My friend advised that the Alton Orchestra plays at the gazebo in the summertime. There was also a walking trail and nice views on the lower side of the park. I give it a 4/5 as there is no equipment or play area for the youngsters. Also there was a large construction area where it appears there was a landslide type situation. The city is addressing it and has the whole area sectioned off for the protection of guests. Overall I would recommend this area for a stroll, a view and maybe a picnic. Would also be a great wedding/event spot with the gazebo.

    I came here today to check out a new park with my friend along the way to the state park, and I…read morefound this quaint city park with a great view of the Mississippi River overlooking St. Charles, MO. I played catch and fetch with my dog, and he got to run around the upper part of the park off-leash. (I recommend not doing the off-leash with your dog if they are not trained for recalls). I sat at the bench overlooking the river for 30-40 minutes, just enjoying the view and how the weather was also perfect for the park. This park will be one of my go-to whenever I revisit Alton, IL.
