We are planning a week long trip this fall on the Katy Trail starting in Defiance and heading west. Is it permitted and secure to park a vehicle for several days at the trailhead in Defiance? If not, is there a better nearby recommendation? Thanks in advance.

I am not sure about the Defiance lot, but just 2 miles west of there that would put you at the Matson Trailhead, which has a large lot. However, if it was me, I would park at the St. Charles Trailhead/Frontier Park(19 miles east of Defiance). To park there for 7 days, you should contact the St Charles Police Department, their non-emergency number is 636-949-3300, and they will take your info along with giving you verbal permission/permit to leave your car there.
