Shawnee State Park, State park in Scioto County, Ohio, US.
The 3,983-acre park features numerous trails through forested hills, a 451-acre lake, and extensive recreational facilities within the Appalachian Plateau region.
Established in 1922 as Theodore Roosevelt State Game Preserve, the park originated from lands that served as hunting grounds for the Shawnee Native American tribe.
The area integrates educational programs focused on natural resources, with guided nature walks and evening sessions conducted by environmental specialists throughout the year.
The park maintains modern camping facilities with electric hookups, heated shower buildings, flush toilets, and laundry services for extended outdoor stays.
Located in an area known as 'The Little Smokies,' the park's highest points reveal a pattern of rolling ridges extending toward the Ohio River in a characteristic blue shade.
