North Thompson Fall Hike

10/30/2021 | Crowder State Park | Trenton, MO

Join park staff at the equestrian parking lot at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 30 to begin a guided 3.8-to-4.2-mile hike on North Thompson Trail. We will discuss plants, trees and animals that we see along the way. North Thompson Trail allows visitors to hike by the Thompson Cemetery, the Thompson House and the Thompson River. An extra 0.4 mile allows hikers to also see Leatherwood Hollow.

Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable hiking shoes and to bring water and a snack.

The equestrian parking lot can be accessed by traveling west on Highway 146 from the park entrance for 1.3 miles. Turn right (north) onto Northwest 52nd Avenue. Travel 2.1 miles and turn right (east) onto Dove Lane. Dove Lane ends at the equestrian trailhead after 0.4 mile.
