Easy trails. Compact zone. Could be very interesting during heavy rain. Gorge is water towards Mammoth Spring area. Good literature. Quiet-yes!! Paved road ends in park.

We stopped here after being in Thayer, Mo. Grand Gulf is about 7 miles west of Thayer. We brought our lunch with us and ate in the park then set off on a couple of trails which are well marked. We could not find a vantage point to get a spectacular canyon type view; we either didn't walk far enough or the very lush vegetation was obstructing our views. We asked several other couples in the park if they had found any good lookout areas and they had not. If we are back this way in the winter, we will probably try again.

Out of the way,,, worth your time. Walk the trails to get a good perspective of the park. I would suggest a Google search on the park before you visit.

It's on the Missouri / Arkansas boarder just up the road from mammoth springs. If you like to hike this is your place. The longest loop is about 40 minutes and the shortest loop is about 15 minutes. It was neat to see what happens when a cave system collapse into its self!!!

No water to see; nice shaded picnic areas; nice walking trails. It was too hot when we were there to do a lot of hiking.

Very near the Arkansas state line, but in Missouri, is Grand Gulf State Park. Be prepared to do some walking! With stairs and many steps. But there are even some trails for handicapped persons. You will learn much geological information and see native trees, flowers, and grasses. Take a picnic lunch, and just chill! We visited on a hot day, but in the lower gulch, the air was cool and fresh.

After visiting Mammoth Springs State Park we visited this small park in Missouri. This place is a huge contrast to the heavily visited and sunny and open Mammoth Springs. Grand Gulf indeed has an isolated and primitive feel to it. The road to it has more of a roller coaster feel to it than many a road we have traveled. The park was deserted and quiet when we arrived. It is a small, compact place and at first underwhelming. There are two or three trails available. To get the true feel of the place you must descend the 70 or so feet and hundred or so stairs to the bottom. Once you get there the atmosphere of the park is almost prehistoric. I commented to my wife that this reminded me of the scenery from the old Land of the Lost series. Very much worth a visit if you are in the area.

A beautiful adventure. It is not far from Thayer, but has a remote feel. Lots of great scenery, beautiful walkways. Great caves, but I did not go in them, I am told they are very primitive and very narrow.... no thanks... I want to know and see where I am going! I did very much enjoy the walking trails and such.

This is a gem. Its not well publicized, but definitely worth a visit. They call it "Missouri's Little Grand Canyon." Its definitely on a much, much smaller scale, but there are lots of hiking areas, a natural land bridge, a cave, numerous overlooks and wildlife. If you arent into hiking, you can enjoy the gulf from above. If you are more adventurous, you can hike the chasm below (which is where the real fun is). Dont wear flip flops though, it isnt an easy hike. There are some areas where you have to climb and will probably get dirty.

Found it by accident coming home from a road trip. really cool place to take kids to see this. you can even go down to the bottom on one side. lots of stairs to get down there and back.

This state park has a variety of rocks and a collasped cave system to view. The park is clean with wooden trails and overlooks. It is a nice place for picnics, hiking, or just spending a couple of hours relaxing.

It's hard to believe a mini version of one the worlds natural wonders is here in our own Ozarks backyard. But it is. Grand Gulf State park located in Missouri. It really is a small version of the Grand Canyon. The trails are fur and the views from the top are breathtaking. I would suggest this for anyone be it a family or a single person.

We have been wanting to check this park out, ever since moving to the Ozarks (AR) and finally made it on Friday! I don't like heights, so I was a bit squemish but well worth getting over it as the place is absolutely gorgeous and the veiws breathtaking! What areas we visited well well maintained and the place was super clean. We are looking forward to going back again, once the leaves are off the trees to be able to see some of the amazing geological features better as the leaves obscured a lot of the features.There is no running water at the Park, so make sure to bring some with you (just in case). We saw 3 very nice picnic areas that were in great condition, well shaded and set in gorgeous places.We got there too late in the day to do the longer trail or to walk the stairs down to the bottom and will make sure to do a much earlier visit next time in order to take it all in!

There weren't any other visitors the morning we stopped by so we were able to see blue birds, wood peckers and gold finches. There are over 100 steps leading you down into the ravine, but it is a pretty view. We didnt have time to do all of the trails, but the ones we did do had small pebbles on them and were all well marked.

I actually just kinda happened onto this park while looking for something to do besides the river. It was very pretty and I'm actually gonna go back soon and hike down to the bottom. They were doing a neat little gathering when I was there because Venus was passing in front of the sun. The park ranger had two telescopes set up so we could see it. They were very nice, very personable. Great place to visit!
