About Rock Bridge Memorial State Park

Get away from the bustle of everyday life by seeing some of Missouri’s finest karst features such as the rock bridge or by exploring the forests, streams and restored grasslands of Rock Bridge Memorial State Park.

Devil's Icebox has over 6 miles of mapped passageways. While walking the half-mile Devil’s Icebox Boardwalk, visitors will have the opportunity to explore Connor’s Cave on their own, and see an underground stream, small spring and sinkhole. The 15 miles of trails that traverse the 2,273-acre park are always open to hikers and are conditionally open to bicyclists. Hikers and horseback riders can enjoy the serenity of the 750-acre Gans Creek Wild Area. Before riding, visitors should call the trail condition hotline at 442-2249.

Groups can make arrangements to receive a rock bridge/Connor’s Cave tour or other interpretive programs. Devil’s Icebox Cave, with over seven miles of passages, can be explored on park-led wild cave tours by advanced registration only. The park’s orienteering course will challenge adventurous visitors.

Picnic sites, 2 reservable picnic shelters, and playground equipment make the park a great place for family gatherings. Primitive camping for non-profit youth organizations is available by making advanced reservations.
