This trail offers a leisurely stroll through shaded woodlands and is rich in history. The Missouri Department of Conservation acquired the August A. Busch Memorial Conservation Area from the federal government back in 1947. Initially serving as a TNT munitions plant during World War II, the area retains around 100 of its original storage bunkers. Despite its historical significance, the Department now promotes public recreational use of the site while prioritizing the preservation of its natural resources to support thriving wildlife and ecosystems.
