grand gulf state park印象

This is a gem. Its not well publicized, but definitely worth a visit. They call it "Missouri's Little Grand Canyon." Its definitely on a much, much smaller scale, but there are lots of hiking areas, a natural land bridge, a cave, numerous overlooks and wildlife. If you arent into hiking, you can enjoy the gulf from above. If you are more adventurous, you can hike the chasm below (which is where the real fun is). Dont wear flip flops though, it isnt an easy hike. There are some areas where you have to climb and will probably get dirty.

No water to see; nice shaded picnic areas; nice walking trails. It was too hot when we were there to do a lot of hiking.

A beautiful adventure. It is not far from Thayer, but has a remote feel. Lots of great scenery, beautiful walkways. Great caves, but I did not go in them, I am told they are very primitive and very narrow.... no thanks... I want to know and see where I am going! I did very much enjoy the walking trails and such.

Out of the way,,, worth your time. Walk the trails to get a good perspective of the park. I would suggest a Google search on the park before you visit.

I actually just kinda happened onto this park while looking for something to do besides the river. It was very pretty and I'm actually gonna go back soon and hike down to the bottom. They were doing a neat little gathering when I was there because Venus was passing in front of the sun. The park ranger had two telescopes set up so we could see it. They were very nice, very personable. Great place to visit!

Easy trails. Compact zone. Could be very interesting during heavy rain. Gorge is water towards Mammoth Spring area. Good literature. Quiet-yes!! Paved road ends in park.

We stopped here after being in Thayer, Mo. Grand Gulf is about 7 miles west of Thayer. We brought our lunch with us and ate in the park then set off on a couple of trails which are well marked. We could not find a vantage point to get a spectacular canyon type view; we either didn't walk far enough or the very lush vegetation was obstructing our views. We asked several other couples in the park if they had found any good lookout areas and they had not. If we are back this way in the winter, we will probably try again.

It's hard to believe a mini version of one the worlds natural wonders is here in our own Ozarks backyard. But it is. Grand Gulf State park located in Missouri. It really is a small version of the Grand Canyon. The trails are fur and the views from the top are breathtaking. I would suggest this for anyone be it a family or a single person.

There weren't any other visitors the morning we stopped by so we were able to see blue birds, wood peckers and gold finches. There are over 100 steps leading you down into the ravine, but it is a pretty view. We didnt have time to do all of the trails, but the ones we did do had small pebbles on them and were all well marked.

This state park has a variety of rocks and a collasped cave system to view. The park is clean with wooden trails and overlooks. It is a nice place for picnics, hiking, or just spending a couple of hours relaxing.
