The trails in this 500+ acre park are in 2 separate sections joined together by restored grassy prairie. They are a mixture of hard packed dirt trails, several small rock gardens, and a few rocky creek crossings.<br />
<br />
The front section is accessed via the concrete bridge that is just off the first parking lot. It's a mixture of wooded single track and open meadows, with several short but steep climbs. Rocky in the beginning, it switches to a dirt base as you start up the ridge.<br />
<br />
The trail then follows the contours of the meadows to the second section, making for a fun, but quick trip to the wooded area in the back of the park. A winding, dirt hillside trail, mixed with rocks leads to a creek crossing, then a rocky ascent as the trail meanders along another ridge line leading to a picturesque view of a local equestrian farm and pond. This section features a wide swooping turn which leads back across the power line alley that divides this part of the trail.

  • Klondike Park is 250 acres of scenic property, featuring more than four miles of natural and paved trails for hiking and biking. Once the site of an old silica sand quarry, the area has been preserved and turned into beautiful parkland. A unique lookout bluff provides picturesque views of the Missouri River Valley, as well as the historic Katy Trail.<br />
<br />
This cozy camping retreat, nestled in Missouri's wine country, has become a preferred camping destination. Spend a relaxing weekend camping under the stars close to home!

<br />
With a modern conference center on site, it's the perfect location for a family or business outing. It also features a large fishing lake fully stocked with bluegill, bass, and catfish and free boat ramps to access the Missouri River. A unique birding/wildlife area, picnic shelters, and playgrounds for children are just a few more amenities to enjoy while at Klondike Park.

Named for the family of Jack Broemmelsiek, who lived on the property for more than 30 years and dedicated their lives to promoting conservation activities, Broemmelsiek Park measures 494 acres in size and features many natural and recreational amenities.<br />
<br />
The region - boasting fertile pasture land and an abundant oak-hickory forest - has a long agricultural history in St. Charles County.  Records date settlement of the area to the late 1700s, and several structures built on what is now Broemmelsiek Park can be dated to the mid-1800s.  To highlight this important link to the County's past, the park's agricultural heritage center (to be added in future development) will display farming operations from the 1800s to the present day.
