Free parking and close to the town of Parkville. Restrooms in the parking lot.

A flat start leads to some of the bigger climbs in the park as you hike to the top of a ridge that circles around the northeast borders of the Parkville Nature Sanctuary. A few offshoot trails at the top lead to Park University and the neighboring houses and several benches along the route offer spots to rest or relax.

This is a quiet loop that seems to have less traffic than those trails within the valley, so there is an even greater chance to spot some wildlife along your hike.

Birds, squirrels and deer
