Forest Park

About

Stretching some 1,300 acres, Forest Park is approximately 500 acres larger than Central Park. In 1904, the Louisiana Purchase Exposition drew more than 19 million visitors from around the world to the urban oasis, and today, it encompasses world-class institutions, including the Saint Louis Art Museum, Missouri History Museum, Saint Louis Science Center and The Muny, which also keep people coming back. More than 30 miles of walking and biking trails traverse Forest Park, and golf courses, tennis courts, basketball courts, racquetball courts, a skating rink and a cricket field also encourage visitors to get active!
