Wayne County, Missouri
Wayne County is in southeast Missouri. It’s a bit of a geographical oddball, really. This county’s got it all: rolling hills, flat farmland, and enough rivers to make your head spin.
The St. Francis River cuts right through, offering prime spots for fishing and floating. Clearwater Lake is a local favorite, perfect for a summer swim or a lazy day of boating. But Wayne County isn’t just about water. No sir.
The Sam A. Baker State Park is a hiker’s dream. Trails here wind through ancient mountains and lush forests. Finally, you will get a kick out of Greenville, the county seat, with its quaint downtown and stories from the Civil War.
