Eleven Point State Park, State park in Oregon County, Missouri, US.
Eleven Point State Park is a protected area in the Ozark region spanning over 4,000 acres along the Eleven Point River. The landscape is shaped by limestone bluffs and clear water, with diverse forests and grasslands throughout.
The area was established as a protected park in 2016 by Missouri's Department of Natural Resources on the former grounds of Pigman Ranch near Riverton. This conversion from private land to public park was part of Missouri's effort to expand its network of nature reserves.
The land was the historic Pigman Ranch before the state acquired it, and the park is named for the Eleven Point River, which forms its southern boundary near Riverton. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources held a one-day open house and guided hike in May 2023, the first public access to the unopened site.
The park is closed awaiting development; no visitor facilities are open. In May 2023 the Missouri Department of Natural Resources held a one-day open house and guided hike of the unopened park. Planned facilities cover hiking, camping, fishing, picnicking, birdwatching and nature study.
The park covers 4,167 acres, mostly on land of the historic Pigman Ranch near Riverton in Oregon County. It was one of three new Missouri state parks announced in 2016, and the Department of Natural Resources held a one-day open house and guided hike of the unopened park in May 2023.
