Confirmed from Klamberg Woods Conservation Area'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.

“Beautiful park with paved paths, well maintained, with activities!”

I found this piece of wilderness in an otherwise quite populated area in West St. Louis County a couple years ago. It is a hidden gem located above Bluebird Park. The hiking trails are natural and run mostly on higher ground with a few dips and climbs.

★★★★★ — Linda , Oct 2020

Beautiful park with paved paths, well maintained, with activities! Disc golf, playground, hiking trails, exercise trails, concerts, baseball field, dog park, and plenty of parking.

★★★★★ — Jenny , Jan 2023

A nice little patch of woods (with some good hills) in the middle of Ellisville...plenty of trails to explore..

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
