Machens, MO on the Katy Trail

Restroom

Mile 26.9

THE MACHENS EXTENSION IS NOW OPEN!  Machens is now included in the mileage chart and trip planner, but we do not yet have the map information for this page.  We hope to have this page updated soon.

A non-plumbing restroom is the only trail service in Machens. If you need more, you can find food services in Portage Des Sioux - you'll need to ride a few miles beyond Machens on the roads.  More details coming soon.

We just rode the entire Katy Trail and Started in Machens. We have high end road bikes with thicker tires and had no problems from Machens on the entire trail. The path was less traveled, but in great shape to St Charles. The trailhead is a little tr...
