Very small little well maintained green area with the relief and couple of bull' bronze. Several plaques narrating the pioneers crossing experience.

We stopped along the highway for this. It’s nice, but very small. There’s some information and a few statues & huge wall installation. You only need 10 mins to see & stretch your legs.

Pioneer Crossing Park in Shawnee is a small historical park with life size 3-D stone and bronze monument of a pioneer wagon and pioneers near Santa Fe Trail crossing point. The town has made excellent use of a bluff area next to Turkey Creek. The park is very well maintained with beautiful landscaping. Walking from the parking lot, you go through a semi-circular quadrangle with information boards of the various trails crossing the area and about a few historical figures from that era. Then you come to the main attraction which is the beautiful monument of a wagon traveling the trails. Then the east end of the park has a set of steep stairs that leads to a playground at the top of the bluff. The whole visit could be leisurely enjoyed in less than an hour. Pioneer Crossing Park is a worthwhile stop for some pioneer history and to see a lovely monument.
