Gateway Arch
Find the Gateway Arch in Jefferson National Expansion Memorial Park and marvel at all 625 feet of it. The impressive stainless steel structure was built as a physical manifestation of the idea that St Louis is the gateway to the West. Take one of the eight elevators to the top of the arch and enjoy world-class views of the river and city beyond.

Meanwhile, Toddler Town offers a space where younger children can play uninterrupted.

Places to visit
Kansas City
With a St Louis Airport car rental you can explore further afield, like Kansas City, which is located a three hour and 40-minute drive away along the I-70. There are some fantastic cultural institutions to visit in Kansas City, which explore the myriad elements of the city’s personality. The American Jazz Museum and Negro Leagues Baseball Museum offer insights into two of Kansas’ great loves. Art fans shouldn’t miss the Nelson-Atkins Museum of art, as its 40,000-strong collection spans ancient to modern times.
Mark Twain National Forest
Driving for just half an hour on the MO-21 will take you to the heart of the Mark Twain National Forest. Named after the famous author, who was a native of Missouri, the park covers a whopping 1.5 million acres. With 750 miles of trails, it’s a paradise for hikers and mountain bikers, while you can also explore on horseback. Take to the water in a canoe or kayak and you’ll enjoy the peace and tranquility of nature as you paddle a section of the 350 miles of streams available.
Hannibal
Hannibal’s biggest claim to fame is that it’s the hometown of Mark Twain and there are plenty of activities connected to the author. There’s the writer’s childhood home, as well as a museum dedicated to his life and works. It’s fun to wander around catching glimpses of anything that might have inspired the tales of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer, and you simply must take a trip on the Mississippi to relive their adventures. Renting a car in St Louis makes it easy to drive just over two hours to Hannibal via the US-61 route.
