Hike the Lost Lake Trail

Madrid, Iowa

Ledges State Park is located close to Des Moines and Ames, home of Iowa State University. Upon entrance to the park, campsites and picnic areas are easily accessible. The defining feature of the park are the sandstone features, or ledges, that overlook the beautiful Des Moines river. The Lost Lake Trail provides an easy loop hike for the whole family with great views.

Hike Ledges State Park's Canyon Road

Boone, Iowa

6.5 mi / 700 ft gain

From the main gravel parking loop at the top, begin your hike on the main paved road. Note: This road is currently closed to vehicle traffic due to heavy water damage on the road. This road also closes to vehicle traffic during the winter. However, it is always open to foot traffic. Follow the paved road .5 miles down to the first creek crossing. Pea's Creek will flow right under the main road,...

Hike the Canyon Road and Table Rock Loop

Boone, Iowa

This park is part of the Des Moines river valley that cuts through most of the area. It's a hot spot for cooling off in the summer given the two rivers and also a great place for hiking. During the spring, fall and winter, the road down into the valley is closed. In the summer, it is open for vehicle traffic. Starting at the upper parking lot, begin your hike by going west. The trail is cl...

Hike the McFarland Park Loop

Ames, Iowa

5 mi / 300 ft gain

After parking in the main lot by the Story County Conservation building, you can choose between two starting points. I recommend starting on the left side of the parking lot at the gravel road and closed yellow gate, as this is a better point for the end of your loop. Hike about 200 yards along this primary road through tall native grasses and beautiful wildflowers. Be sure to look for plentifu...

Briggs Woods Waterfalls

Webster City, Iowa

0.52 mi / 62 ft gain

Briggs Wood Park Waterfalls are Located 2.5 miles South of Webster City off Highway 17. It is very peaceful watching the water cascade over the rocks and into the stream below. If you follow the water down stream it will lead you to the Boone River. I arrived at the falls before sunrise because I wanted to have the soft light of the rising sun come from behind the falls. I photographed the fa...
