Since 2002, The Great Rivers
Greenway District has implemented many projects across the region, often in
partnership with municipal, governmental and public agencies, as well as
private and nonprofit organizations. The blueprint for The Great Rivers
Greenway District is to develop a region-wide system of greenways, parks and
trails that will encircle the region. Called, The River Ring, the 600-mile web
of more than 45 greenways will span two states and an area of 1,216 square
miles with 1.6 million residents. In addition to creating a vibrant, more
connected region with thriving green spaces and flourishing natural habitats,
new opportunities will result in strong economic development.
This map allows users to locate and learn about Great Rivers Greenway
District’s trails and on-street bike routes. The color distinctions represent
projects in various phases of development. Green is a completed trail project,
maroon is a project under construction, blue is a project in the engineering or
trail design phase, and yellow is a project in planning. Bike St. Louis routes
are represented as green/white dashed lines. Those routes are complete.
