Nice wooded retreat
(Updated: October 25, 2021)
Rating
4.0
Fort Zumwalt Park is a nice, mostly wooded 48-acre park located off the south service road of I-70 near Main Street in O'Fallon. The park is a nice place to take the kids including a wooded area playground and a pond. For local residents, one of the park's annual winter highlights is the Celebration of Lights when most of the park's roadway is decked out with Christmas lights and decorations.
