The section of the Al Foster Trail between the Jefferson City Bridge and the turn for Rock Hollow Greenway has a lot of spur trails offering viewpoint and rock climbing access. The rock climbing sections are obvious, and the cliffs are real, so use caution if you decide to walk up to one of the lookouts with kids or pets.

Running

This is an 8 foot (2.4m) wide trail made of crushed stone that follows the Meramec River between Glencoe and Sherman Beach. The suburban trail has coined the nickname 'Zombie Road', due to its supposed supernatural activity.

The trail provides wonderful views of Bluffs Forest and the river.
