Four of us planning this ride in May. Would like some info on terrain, shade?, beauty??, sights?? We've biked Columbia/Rochport and Defiance/Hermann--beautiful. How does proposed route compare? Thanks!

Last spring I rode from Rocheport to Mokane and back. As with most of the trail, the scenery there is interesting and varied, in this case, along the Missouri River and the river-valley farmland. At that time, geese were nesting in or near the bluffs and lagoons between Huntsdale and Jeff City. Spring flowers of all sizes were blooming everywhere.

Several of the village stops have eateries of somekind, and points of interest with trailside markers. The trailheads at Tebbets and Mokane are fairly sparce. However, trail-riders can rest at the Turner Katy Trail Hostel in Tebbets (also a convenience store and bar-grill there), and go into the town of Mokane, a block or two north of the trailhead. Enjoy.

Irc....this section does not differ much from the others that you've ridden. There are only a few miles difference between this middle section and the sections on either side that you've already ridden. Check the "Plan a Ride" feature above about this section. If you liked the parts that you've ridden, you should enjoy this trip as well.

I echo jd about the portion from Huntsdale to Jeff City. I found the portion from Jeff City to Mokane not as scenic and there are a lot of areas where there is little shade. The hostel in Tebbets is, although spartan, a good place to take a break or spend the night for only $5.00.
