Confirmed from Blanchette Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Saint Charles' oldest city park, featuring an aquatic center, sports fields & picnic shelters.
What runners say about Blanchette Park
This is our favorite park in the St. Charles area. Seems to be less crowded than Jaycee but still a lot of fun. Very cool playground with lots of slides. There are a couple pavilions and a nice walking trail with some memorials. Park is located in back at a safe distance from any baseball fields.
Very nice park! I've gotten spoiled by Forest Park since movie to St. Louis and though this one isn't as big it still has that really nice feel. We were there for a practice game for my husbands baseball league. The baseball fields were great and there was a great little play area for kids.
The three story play ground is sure to captivate your child . This park has it all .If your looking for a hill to sled down this winter the bowl located in Blanchette is mint .
Always a good time. Just way to cold the day we came to sled. Brought my daughter. That hill didn't disappoint! Lol our sled broke and I think we almost died but we survived and laughed at the end. No Injuries and reminds of me when I was a kid.
