MEPRD Trailhead

We did a family bike ride and it was so fun and relaxing. It was our first time going here.

Excellent trails. Would be nice to have more benches along them, however they are well maintained. Nice to have so many options for a long bike ride.

Always parking for our bike rides. Good trail and not to long to get to Horseshoe Lake

Great place to park and walk the trail.

If you live in Saint Louis and you want to use the excellent, paved MEPRD Bike Trails, this is a good place to start. Parking is secure and there are flush bathrooms. I ride with a group that meets here weekly at 9am. We ride together on the MEPRD Trails, eat lunch somewhere along the ride, then return to our cars here. You can leave your house in St Louis at 8 am, ride, eat lunch, ride some more for a total of about 40 miles, and be home around 2pm. Great way to spend the day. This particular Trailhead is a great place for St Louis and Illinois bike riding friends to meet up.

Starting point for Autism of Illinois Fund Raiser bike ride. Location is always very clean. Bathrooms are open to the homeless so sometimes there not in the best of shape. Illinois should be commended for the Madison County Trail

Loved the pavement and the absence of automobile traffic. No hills though, nice leisurely, no stress ride. There are 7 different trails and most can be linked to provide an overall ride of 25-40 miles if you structure it right. If you're not a strong rider you'll love these trails. 😀

Beautiful location and well appointed trailhead for the Madison County Trails. There are we'll kept bathrooms, tools for emergency repairs, and of course plenty of water options. If you desire a quick bite, Culver's is a scant 200 yards away.

Great place to hit the trails. Nice bathrooms, the drinking water fountain even has a dog option on it near the base! There are basic tools that you can use to make minor repairs available near the bathrooms.

It's a good place to start a ride on MCT.

Great biketrails. Can't find any better trail network. This is not just a single leg, but several connected legs that can be put together to make many unique rides. And most of the trails are quiet and away from roads.

Excellent spot to get on the trail. There is an air pump and restrooms to use. Could get in either direction on the trail and have a good time!

If you enjoy bicycling you need to come to Madison County Illinois. You can travel from many cities to cities on dedicated bike/walk asphalt paths. With small restaurants and shops near the paths.

Great place to park to ride the MCT system.

Nice facility, right next to a Culver's, so you can get some food after a long walk or ride.

Perfect spot to start and end a bike ride. Lots of route options, clean facilities and plenty of parking.

Nice flat trails, plenty of shade from trees, clean bathrooms, and a nice resting area. Will definitely be back!

A great place to park and hit the trails. There is a water fountain, restrooms and an air pump.

Great place for a stop along the trail. Water, bathrooms, parking, tools and maps

Always a good place to walk or ride your bike on and they are planting new trees along the trail cant wait to see if come spring
