If you’re a nature lover, you will love all of the geology that Ha Ha Tonka State Park offers. The park features a huge natural bridge, sinkholes, caves, sheer bluffs, and Missouri’s 12th largest spring.

Visit the Castle Ruins

When you visit Ha Ha Tonka State Park, no trip is complete without visiting the ruins of a turn-of-the-centry stone castle that overlooks the Lake of the Ozarks. In 1903, a wealthy Kansas City Businessman named Robert Snyder purchased the land to build a private retreat. After a tragic car wreck resulting in the death of Snyder, his son finished the construction in 1922. Even more bad luck sprung up in 1942 when a spark from a chimney caused the castle to burn down. Today, the old castle ruins and the beauty of the park attract many visitors looking to take in the breath-taking sites of the Ozarks.
