Hiking Missouri
Hiking Videos and Trail Reviews of the beautiful Missouri Outdoors.
I started hiking in Missouri in 2020 and was blown away by all of the beautiful hiking trails Missouri has to offer.
The more I explore the Missouri outdoors the more realize just how many gems the Show Me State contains. In the hiking blogs posts below you’ll find Youtube hiking videos of each trail, history about the trails and the Missouri state parks their in, and trail reviews.
I’m currently writing Hiking Missouri: A Missouri Hiking Guidebook for Falcon Guides.

Hiking Rocky Falls Shut-Ins to Klepzig Mill in Missouri

Hiking Mudlick Mountain at Sam A. Baker | Hiking Missouri
This week I head to Sam A. Baker State Park in Missouri to hike the Shut-Ins Trail to the top of Mudlick Mountain (1,313 feet). It’s the end of October and the Missouri fall colors were in full effect on this midwest hiking trail. Along the trail there is one beautiful Missouri bluff view, three historic stone camping shelters, and an active fire tower atop Mudlick Mountain.
