The Katy Trail (K - Kansas to T - Texas) is pedestrian trail that winds through Columbia and heads out, well, all the way to Texas, if you keep going. Great for walks, bike riding, running, open all seasons. If you are going for an extended trek, lock valuables in trunk, just because that is a common sense thing to do.

Food scene
We don’t have as many great Mexican food restaurants here as I would like, but if you want incredible food and not a Carnival cruise version of a visit to Mexico, these two very small restaurants have great choices. The taquería is near here, Med Mex is just off the 63 and 70 Highway interchange near Walmart.
