Broemmelsiek Park provides a recreational space for individuals throughout the St. Charles County area. This park offers more than seven miles of multi-use trails as well as an off-leash dog area with small water features in which dogs may swim. The trail is open for equestrian use, bicycling and hiking. There are multiple fishing lakes in the park that are stocked with bass, catfish and bluegill. The astronomy station in the park offers a viewing site with ten concrete viewing stations equipped with telescopes. <br />

Keeping with the county's mission to preserve green space, the St. Charles County Parks Department is designing Broemmelsiek Park as a passive recreation area focused on the natural features of the land. The 384 acre property is located in southwestern St. Charles County five miles west of Highway 40-61 off State Route DD. Broemmelsiek Park features several lakes, a blend of oak-hickory forest and rolling pastures suitable for a variety of recreation activities and park amenities.

  • It was an unusual winter day on December 2, 2013 when the temperature climbed close to 80 in Missouri. ..We decided to go for a walk and take photographs when we noticed the dog park at Broemmelsiek Park was extremely busy. So we sat over at the dog park and just started snapping photos of the dogs as they played.

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.

  • This is the best dog park in the area for sure, well at least for the ones that are free. A couple of hours of swimming in the pond and running the perimeter my dogs, (a pit and a boxer), don't move for days

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.
