Antire Valley County Park, 1301 Beaumont-Antire Rd, High Ridge, MO 63049, US

A one-mile, paved walking trail beckons from this 21-acre park, and when it's warm -- and even brisk -- residents are walking it. The park is adjacent to Crestwood Elementary School, and park visitors will hear the ruckus of recess from the school. This park also features three softball practice fields, two tennis courts, two large covered picnic areas, two soccer fields, a playground with rubber safety surface, sledding hill for snowy outings and a place to hold a planned-in-advance fire ring event. There are also bathrooms. Parking is available on both ends of the park, at Meadowfern and Amberly Drives, all residential areas, so keep going until the street ends at the parking lots.
