Unger Park

I'm giving this park 3 stars because the Meramec Greenway walking trail is closed and that was my purpose for visiting. That being said, though, I can see that this park is really quite beautiful and I completely understand its appeal to fisherfolk. The disc golf course looked busy when I was there, so this must be a popular place for that activity too. I'll be back on a better day when I've got more time to explore some of the natural trails in the woods - or when Great Rivers Greenways reopens a new trail route. Photos are attached showing Greenway trail closures and obstacles. Oh - other reason for 3 stars is no toilet, only a non-too-clean portapotty.

The lake is relatively scenic, but most of the walking trail doesn't give many views. The paved trail has some shade, which is nice. Unfortunately the section in the north part of the park is closed indefinitely due to flood damage. The dirt trail in the woods is narrow and overgrown, looks like it would be tick heaven.

Its a pretty park, fishing seems like its more Gar and Drum, things overflowing from the river, and theres disc golf but the course is all over the woods. Not a bad spot.
