Meramec State Park – Hike Wilderness Trail Long Loop

MBA will hold an “All Welcome” hike on the Wilderness Trail Long Loop in Meramec State Park, near Sullivan, Missouri. We will meet at the Meramec State Park Visitor Center at 9:00 am, and then proceed to the Wilderness Trail Long Loop TH. There are two options for this trail, one of about eight miles and the other of about ten miles. Either one of these two routes can be hiked in three to five hours. This is a wonderful trail with a beautiful spring (Copper’s Spring) on the backside, perfect for a lunch stop.

When: Sunday, October 17, 2021, starting at 9:00 am.

Weather: Temps in the mid-50’s to 60’s, with no rain in the forecast. Should be a beautiful day

Gear: This is a moderate to hard hike. Hiking shoes/boots of your choice, day or hydration pack, water, trekking poles. There is a great spot to stop for lunch on the backside of this trail (Copper’s Spring), so bring something to eat if you like.
