Wilton To Jefferson City, Katy Trail (October 2006)

 
By way of introduction, the Katy Trail is a 225-mile route across the mid-section of Missouri made possible by converting a former railroad bed into a remarkable asset to the state and the entire Midwest, especially for bikers.

We've ridden/walked several sections of the trail at various times but never with a lot of photos.  It was time to change that so we decided to start close to home and do a section starting just upriver from Hartsburg, named Wilton, down to the trailhead at Jefferson City.  All told the distance is just over 14 miles.

The Wilton trailhead is at mile marker 157.4 and the North Jefferson trailhead is at 143.2.  For the Katy Trail State Park website of this section, click here.
