Trail Worker

Trail workers assist park personnel in all aspects of trail construction and maintenance. This can be done individually or in small groups. Work may be done year-round, but fall and winter are the best times of the year.

About Prairie State Park

Tallgrass prairies once covered more than a third of Missouri; today, less than one percent remains, much of it preserved at Prairie State Park. Visitors to the park see panoramic vistas of swaying grass and ever-changing wildflowers. They also may spot the park’s resident bison herd. The park’s Regal Tallgrass Prairie Nature Center offers exhibits and interpretive programs designed to inform visitors about the special place.
