City of Glenwood

The Loess Hills define the area, rugged and exceedingly steep bluffs line the broad Missouri River Valley, creating hidden valleys and canyons. Glenwood is nestled in the Hills and in this way has been sheltered from the influence of the "Big City." Glenwood has a very high ratio of park land and civic space per resident, recreation opportunities abound from Glenwood Lake Park to the Wabash Trace and West Oak Forest, the Glenwood area has something for everyone.
