Platte Landing Park

• Two miles of scenic trails along the river and through natural areas, ideal for walking, jogging, biking and nature observation.
• A new Wetlands Habitat Restoration Project that spans approximately 41 acres of emergent wetlands, wet-mesic bottomland prairie and riparian corridor. Developed in partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, this habitat restores the riverfront ecosystem, improves water quality, and provides wildlife viewing opportunities.
• Off-leash dog areas: Seven fenced acres separated into a 3-acre large-dog field and a 2-acre small-dog field (double-gated for safety). Running water available for pets.
• Boat ramp access to the main channel of the Missouri River.

• Friends Shelter – A dedicated shelter house available for rent, perfect for gatherings, picnics or community events.
• Friends Field – Soccer fields available for rental for practices.
• For full reservation information, availability and booking, please visit the Parkville Parks & Recreation Reservation Page or contact the Parks & Recreation office at 816-741-7676.

• Park open daily from 5 a.m. to midnight.
• To protect the newly restored wetlands, visitors are encouraged to stay on marked trails and boardwalks as the habitat is home to a variety of birds, insects and native vegetation.
• If using the off-leash dog areas, please follow posted rules: dogs should be supervised, owners remain responsible for behavior and cleanup, and use the correct size zone (large vs small) for your pet’s safety.
• Trails are gravel/packed surface and relatively flat and good for all fitness levels, strollers or casual strolls.
