If you can tolerate the raw sewage smell, that seems to leach out of the Hinkson creek, this is a nice area to access the trail. The basketball court, bike ramps and playground are nice.

Its an excellent small playground right on the trail, only downfall is the bathroom. If there is one, its not with the playground.

The MKT Trail is the one amenity I would miss the most if I were to live any place else besides Columbia. The trail is wide and is maintained as a loose gravel trail. It is flat and makes for easy bike riding and running. It is almost entirely tree-covered and, in places, travels between rock faces, making it a decently scenic trail.The Jax Dix Station entrance includes a restroom, drinking fountains, parking lot, and soccer fields. The trail also contains mile markers and occasional emergency stations for calling 911.The trail is well used and is busiest on weekend mornings. Via the MKT you can travel into downtown Columbia, or in the opposite direction toward the Katy Trail (which will take you to McBaine or Rocheport, depending on which direction you go).

The MKT trail is beautiful. This is the last major access point before it meets the Katy Trail at McBain.

Nice place. There is a playground, a bike trail, the MKT, a bike park, basketball, a few pieces of exersize equipment, and even a place to rest while your kids play! 10/10 recomment the bike park though. Unless it is wet...

Mountain bike skills park is a great little gem on the MKT, session some small features and get creative hopping off well built rollers and see-saws and a ripping little wall ride ... circulation is a bit confusing, find that clear line by starting with the see-saw, banking a left at the end, hitting the two rollers and heading down toward the wall ride.Some rocks, some tight technical stuff, I sessioned it on my Kona Rove and had a great time.

Great park for the whole family. Exercise equipment for all, grass fields for games and a court for basketball. It is down wind from the water treatment plant and doesnt always have the freshest smelling area 100% of the time.

They have added and done a lot of work to this park. Theyve added new swings and play equipment. Also a basketball court. Added ramps for bikes (not so much for skateboarders, for its all dirt and planked wood). This is also an access point to get on the KT trail. In the same park but across the street, they have a very nice soccar field. The police often drive by and thru this park for safety. Theres also a fire station across the street. It is open from sun up to sun down, everyday. Many also walk their dogs out here.

Perfect place to park for hitting the MKT trail. From here you can ride right into downtown Columbia(about 4 miles) or head west to tue KATY trail that goes all the way ti St. Louis. Park also has a playground, pavilion that can be reserved, mountain bike skills course, outdoor exercise equipment, basketball court, restrooms on east side of the road. Soccer and rugby fields.
