A hidden gem, this paved trail is well-developed but extremely scenic. Part of the Meramec Greenway trails system, it is a one-way walk from Ridge Road down to the Meramec River(2.3 miles down, 2.3 miles back uphill). Although it starts in a fairly developed part of Ellisville the houses on the ridge tops soon disappear and(in late fall) you can view scenic hills and ravines with occasional rock outcroppings. It is a somewhat busy trail; there are a lot of cyclists on weekends who will be riding fairly fast down the trail.
