St. Louis Region
The 30/30 Hikes program is a county trail sampler
St. Louis County's 30/30 Hikes program designates 30 short trails around the county, giving residents an official way to sample county-area parks.
St. Louis County’s park system is large enough that choosing a trail can be the hard part. The county’s 30/30 Hikes program designates 30 trails around the St. Louis County area that take about 30 minutes to complete.
That is useful for newcomers, families, and people trying to learn the county park map one small loop at a time. It also keeps the recommendation official: use the county program and park pages for trail names, locations, and any current details.
The best local outdoor note is often not “go here.” It is “use this official county tool to choose the right trail for today.”
