The 8,238-acre St. Joe State Park is Missouri's third largest state park, with approximately 2,000 acres set aside for the state's premier off-road vehicle riding area. The park also features two campgrounds capable of accommodating campers with ORVs and horses, a hiking/bicycling trail, equestrian trails, picnic sites and lakes for swimming and fishing. Visitors can explore several thousand acres of woodlands or spend their days relaxing in the great outdoors. The historic mill buildings, where St. Joe Minerals once processed the lead ore, still stand nearby and have been designated as the Missouri Mines State Historic Site. There guests can enjoy an excellent mining museum featuring a large collection of geological specimens and antique mining and milling equipment.
