Pinnacles Youth Park is a wonderful outdoor area that is enjoyed by people of all ages! There are climbable rock structures, several trails, and an abundance of beautiful nature to take in! I went to this park a ton of times with family and college friends back in the day. It is always a delight to stop back in and explore the area! read more

The pinnacles are a jagged-pointy rock formation that stands about 75 feet high and stretches about 1000 feet long. Bordered on one side by Kelley Creek and on another by Silver Fork Creek, the two streams have been slowly pinching the mass of Burlington limestone separating them, a highly reactive stone that's dissolved by moving water. Some parts of the stone were even carved out entirely, creating little tunnel-like windows dotting the vertical rock face. From the parking area, it is a short walk past picnic shelters and some benches down to the water's edge where you can wade across or just look up at the amazing rock structures. There are hiking trails throughout the park and I saw a number of folks walking, some with dogs. I read that there's a good amount of poison ivy along the trails, so I didn't take a chance. Also, some of the walking looked uneven and following the usual rule of "Never hike alone" I decided not to risk a twisted ankle with no help. At the creek's edge, I was able to find enough stones to make a pretty rock stack. I wonder if it's still there today. [Review 19735 overall - 212 in Missouri - 707 of 2023.] read more

We love exploring the Devil's Icebox Cave and the Sinkhole short trail. There are parts on the trail that are easily accessible by following the wood-planked walkway, but there are also "off the beaten path" trails and spots to ride your bike. Rock Bridge State Park is absolutely beautiful and is a "Must Visit" outdoor spot in Columbia, MO!

The Skywalk is a pedestrian and bicycle trail that utilizes the Missouri River Pedestrian/Bike Bridge. It's the safe way to cross the Missouri River from Jefferson City. The view from the bridge is pretty amazing, especially at sunset though the mosquitoes make their presence known. [Review 19749 overall - 226 in Missouri - 721 of 2023.]

There are bathrooms at the marina parking lot, grills and water. There are bathrooms trails are well maker and easy to follow. There are maps at the trail head. If riding isn't enough, bring your disc golf equipment. I don't play but the course looks fun. Also, you can fish and kayak in the lake. Great trails! Ride On!
