Broemmelsiek Park

Broemmelsiek Park

This is a multi-use park that is open to mountain bikers, equestrians, and hikers, so please observe proper trail etiquette while enjoying the trails.

The trails in this 500+ acre park are in 2 separate sections joined together by restored grassy prairie. They are a mixture of hard packed dirt trails, several small rock gardens, and a few rocky creek crossings.

The front section is accessed via the concrete bridge that is just off the first parking lot. It's a mixture of wooded single track and open meadows, with several short but steep climbs. Rocky in the beginning, it switches to a dirt base as you start up the ridge.

The trail then follows the contours of the meadows to the second section, making for a fun, but quick trip to the wooded area in the back of the park. A winding, dirt hillside trail, mixed with rocks leads to a creek crossing, then a rocky ascent as the trail meanders along another ridge line leading to a picturesque view of a local equestrian farm and pond. This section features a wide swooping turn which leads back across the power line alley that divides this part of the trail.

St. Charles County Parks operates a Trail Conditions Hotline detailing the current state of the trails in all of their parks. Please call 636-949-7475, opt # 4 to check trail conditions.

The trail was fantastic this evening, but there is a downed tree partially covering the trail about 200 yd counterclockwise from shelter 7. I got as much of it off the trail as I could. Just needs to be sawed in half and it will be cleared.

Be aware of the grumpy old guy spreading gravel along the trail. He’s a curmudgeon lol.

Mid summer conditions, Trail improvements taking place on Jacks Loop below Bettys Lake at the creek crossing and the clustered root mess when climbing CW from the creek. More improvements to take place as time permits.

Trail is dry. Dirt was good. Picked up 3 ticks from the field crossings so don't forget the DEET.
