Website: http://mostateparks.com/cuivre.htm The Cuivre River State Park is located in northeastern Missouri, United States, east of Troy. The 6,393-acre (25.87 km2) park was established in 1946 and offers camping, fishing on Sugar Creek, swimming, and hiking.
In the 1930s, the Civilian Conservation Corps and the Works Project Administration developed the landscape as a federal recreation demonstration area. These projects built roads, bridges, group camps, and some hiking trails.[1]
Within the park are the Big Sugar Creek Wild Area (1,165 acres), the North Woods Wild Area (1,102 acres), and the Lincoln Hills Natural Area (1,782 acres).[1]
