Review & FAQ:
Thanks to its dramatic sandstone bluffs and gorges, Ledges State Park is one of Iowa's most popular state parks. During the warmer months, visitors flock here to admire the spectacular natural beauty and explore the park's 4 miles of hiking trails, many of which feature steep portions that lead to scenic look-out points. Another highlight of the park is Lost Lake, which can be reached via a handicap-accessible trail dotted with interpretive signs. Visitors are also welcome to fish in the Des Moines River, take photos of the beautiful arch stone bridge, and relax at the many picnic areas scattered throughout the park.
