Finger Lakes State Park

Columbia, Missouri

Welcome to the unique and active Finger Lakes State Park located near Columbia, Missouri. This park was once an large strip mine for coal where 1.2M tons of it were removed between June of 1964 and October 1967 by the Peabody Mining Company. In 1974 the abandoned mine was donated by the company to the State of Missouri who turned it into the active ATV Park that it is today. But ATV riding is not the only activity one can do here, the park also boasts a swimming beach, picnic areas with grills, and much more. Please note that gasoline powered watercraft are not allowed in any of the lakes.

Camping: Finger Lakes State Park has 35 campsites and 16 of them have electricity. Come out and stay a few nights.
