The Katy Trailhead in St. Charles, Missouri is perhaps the largest and most developed along the route. The St. Charles trailhead sits in between the Missouri River and historic old town St. Charles which is full of shops, dining, and one of the first micro breweries in the state. Many folk who travel the trail choose to start or end their journey in St. Charles due to the amount of activities surrounding the town.
