St. Louis Area Bike Trails

GRANT'S TRAIL

VICINITY: St. Louis
TRAIL LENGTH: 6.2 miles
SURFACE: Asphalt

The Grant's Trail (formerly the Carondelet Greenway Trail) opened as a rail-trail in 1994. This 6.2-mile trail, once part of the Missouri Pacific railroad line, enjoys very heavy use from bicyclists, walkers, and rollerbladers. The trail passes through the southern neighborhoods of St. Louis. It goes by an urban and suburban area adjacent to undeveloped wetlands. In 1997, the trail was renamed Grant's Trail after President Ulysses S. Grant, who established the country's first National Park. The Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site is located in southern St. Louis County on 9.65 acres of land (between mileposts 5 and 6 of the trail). Riders can visit the Gateway Trailnet's office where Reavis Barracks Road meets the Grant's Trail (near mile post 1). The yellow brick building was formerly the Grasso Brothers Coal Company, a destination for the coal carried by the railroad's freight cars. Future plans include extending Grant's Trail west toward Sappington Road.

PARKING: Parking can be found on Hoffmeister, Reavis Barracks Road, Union Road, and Tesshire.
