The Elephant Rocks State Park, as the name suggests, is home to elephant-shaped boulders, the stars of an unusual state park within southeastern Missouri. These elephant-shaped rocks were created from granite dating back 1.5 billion years and stand end-to-end in the park like a train of elephants in a circus. The park’s Braille Trail offers an easy way for visitors to view these giant boulders, and was designed especially for those with physical or visual disabilities. This trail meanders the the main area of the elephant boulders. The park also includes the ruins of a railroad engine house and picnic tables.
