About Crowley's Ridge Parkway

Crowley's Ridge Parkway is a 15-mile National Scenic Byway in Missouri, with the towns of St. Francis and Campbell along the route. It is a drive rather than a trail, so there is no climb or distance to cover in the traditional sense. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show October highs around 74°F with lows near 49°F, while July highs reach about 92°F. For a short walk off the road, Beech Tree Trail lies about half a mile from the parkway.
