Castlewood Park

Picnic cake

Castlewood Park offers fishing and boating on the Meramec River and has a variety of trails hiking, mountain biking, walking paths and dogs, on a leash are allowed.

The most visited section of the park is on the north side of the Meramec River. It includes land on the south side of the river that can be accessed from Lone Elk County Park. The south section of the park includes the World Bird Sanctuary.

We set up a picnic lunch and was swarmed by  pesky bees. There was even an apple core at the edge of our picnic area but they liked us, Diane, better. We lined up the bees we swatted them as a reminder to all other bees that they could end up like their friends if they got too close.
