With water sport activities based out of State Park Marina on Table Rock Lake and several hiking trails in the White River Valley Trail system, the Missouri State Park offers a multitude of outdoor activities for those wanting to soak up some nature in between Branson’s famous entertainment and nightlife.
White River Valley Trail System
The White River Valley Trail system is an 11.3 mile trail system located in the heart of Table Rock State Park. It’s divided into four distinct loop trails with connector trails between each. Ambitious hikers could hike the entire system in one long loop only ever backtracking on the connector trails.
White River Valley Red Trail
The White River Valley Red Trail is the second longest trail in the system at 3.1 miles. The most technical of the trails, it’s an enchanting hike through the Missouri outdoors. A unique feature of the Red Trail are options to take Advanced sections of trails. These are short sections that are slightly more rocky and rooted than the regular trail which lead to a creek or other interesting rock small rock formations.
There aren’t any major bluffs or overlooks on the Red Trail, but there are several creeks and one prominent creek crossing hikers will need to navigate. Overall the White River Valley Red Trail is an enchanting hike definitely worth exploring during a trip to Branson.
