Show Me the Katy Trail! June departure

This 230-mile tour is about 85% on crushed limestone traffic-free rail trail, and 15% on public road.

SPECIAL NOTE: We've been invited along on the Big BAM Tour on the Katy Trail as a supplier for their hotel option, for BAM guests who prefer hotels to tents. This means that all who register as our guest get the full Bike Tour Vacation tour, plus the amenities and fun buzz of the Big BAM! This includes the BAM Swag Bag, trailside sag support & water stops, mechanic support, and access to BAM special events.

Experience Missouri’s scenic Katy Trail, starting and ending in historic St. Charles. Ride through charming towns like Sedalia, Booneville, Jefferson City, Hermann, and Dutzow, enjoying comfortable hotel stays and local hospitality along the way. Each day offers a new stretch of the trail, with beautiful landscapes and welcoming communities.
