About Crowder State Park

Crowder State Park covers rolling, wooded land in northern Missouri that is rougher than most parks in its region. Its trails suit hikers, mountain bikers, backpackers, and horseback riders. Visitors can picnic in shaded areas, fish or boat on a stocked lake with a launch ramp, and stay at a family-friendly campground with full-hookup sites and modern facilities. The lake and park take their name from a general who grew up nearby.
