Coyote Crawl 5K & Head for the Hills 10K St. Louis, MO   Nov 1, 2025

Enjoy a 5K or 10K run through Missouri’s first, and one of only 52 Level III Arboretums globally, while surrounded by incredible fall foliage. The rolling hills of Bellefontaine’s 314 acres will allow a greater appreciation of the 87,000 lives commemorated on the grounds of the oldest Garden Cemetery west of the Mississippi.

Founded in 1849, Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum has been the final resting place for many of St. Louis’s notable figures, including Priscilla Baltimore, General William Clark, Sarah Teasdale, and Adolphus Busch. You will find world-renowned architecture such as the Wainwright Mausoleum, our historic Hotchkiss Chapel, and the “Girl in the Glass Box” nestled among our 14 miles of roadway. A diverse collection of close to 10,000 trees and shrub varieties dot the landscape, making an enjoyable run/walk through history and nature.
