There’s one main circumferential trail around the park, and several branches off if it, including some narrow dirt trails through Kennedy Forest, to provide some variety in distance and terrain. Although the branch trails can be confusing initially, its hard to get truly lost because they all eventually rejoin the main trail. The STL area has lots of other great places to run, including very challenging dirt trails (e.g. the Chubb trail off of I-44 in far west STL county), but you’ll need a car to get there. Easiest and most enjoyable way to learn what the area has to offer is to have a few upperclass running buddies show you the ropes or join the STL Track Club.
