Historic Parkville represents a marvelous mix of antiques, crafts, specialty shops and restaurants. Our beautiful English Landing Park , along the banks of the Missouri River, provides hikers, strollers and picnickers with groomed trails, shelters, and playground equipment. The Parkville Nature Sanctuary offers 115 acres of woods and wetlands, a waterfall, a beaver colony, and a little glimpse of Parkville history.
Educational programs are available at the sanctuary throughout the year.
From May through October you will find Saturday mornings coming alive with visitors wandering through Parkville's Farmers Market selecting fresh produce, plants and flowers, and baked goods. Parkville's location and picturesque setting allow year-round enjoyment of the spectacular scenery of the wooded hills and valleys overlooking the Missouri River. This is reflected in its busy calendar of festivals and outdoor events.
