Hawn State Park is a natural area in Missouri featuring exposed sandstone, forests of pines and oaks, and flowing streams across bedrock. The landscape includes rolling terrain with multiple trails and camping facilities.
The park was established in 1955 by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources to protect the natural features for public use. The protected area has since served as a destination for outdoor recreation and learning about local geology.

The park offers campsites ranging from basic to electric hookups, with reservations available several months in advance through the Missouri State Parks system. Visitors should check conditions before arriving, especially during seasons when water levels or trail access may vary.
