The Katy
A rails-to-trails project, the Katy is the longest biking and hiking trail in the country. In days past the trail was the Missouri-Kansas-Texas(MKT) Railroad, better know as the Katy. The trail runs near the Missouri river and gives a biker a view of some of the best natural scenery Missouri has to offer. To learn more about the Katy, see the Missouri State site at Katy Trial State Park.

Take a look at a map of the Defiance area of the Katy Trail State Park. There is so much, so close when you begin your scenic ride from KBR in Defiance. The fact that the Katy is a rails-to-trails project makes your ride even more enjoyable. Trains on the Katy could not climb a steep grade, and you won't have to either.
