    Walking the Sunset Park trail on a nice December morning
    Bre K.

    The park has a nice walking or biking path - very wide and paved. Hilly, but plenty of benches at scenic spots looking over the Missouri River. Restrooms available at the parking lot. Been a few times and met lots of nice doggos

    Great park in north county. Accessible, clean trails and lots of opportunities for picnics. Hike to the river and admire the view.

    Fun. Relaxing park, nice for Hikes & indeed catching the sunset! Hence, is that why it got the name?

    Awesome view if you're in the upper parking area. Lower parking area need some trees cleared so you can see the river.

    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.
