Ha Ha Tonka State Park
Thursday, May 29, 2014
The State of Missouri, USA, has an awesome park system and conservation department. Recently my mom and brother and friend were at the Lake of the Ozarks and did a day trip to Ha Ha Tonka State Park. It is in the center of the state, near Camdenton. This park is known for it's Karst topography, a landscape of caves, sinkholes, and underwater streams and springs. In the early part of the 20th century, a large stone castle was built on the bluffs. It burned in 1942 and some of the stone walls are left. There is a natural bridge, a beautiful spring, and lots of hiking trails. Here are some photos and don't forget to click on the link for more information.

Great pics!!! I was there long ago with friends, probably not too many years after HaHa Tonka became a park. There were no fences or manmade lookout points. You could just walk right out on one of the limestone ledges!! The spring is quite lovely to!
