Elk Rock State Park — photo spot in 811 146th Ave, Knoxville, IA 50138, USA
Elk Rock State Park
Elk Rock State Park features dramatic sandstone bluffs, oak savanna and river shoreline—ideal for landscape and waterscape shots. Shoot sunrise/sunset light on the cliffs and reflections on the Des Moines River/Red Rock reservoir; fall colors and spring green-up are especially photogenic. Trails and bluff overlooks are short but sometimes steep; small parking areas by trailheads. No special permits beyond standard park regulations—check local rules and seasonal access. Weekdays and early morning
