Nature is truly amazing. Sometimes Mother Earth will form gorgeous gifts for mankind that are so beautiful that they draw in countless visitors to wonder at the magnificent beauty.

According to the site, the most underrated natural wonder in all of Missouri is Elephant Rocks State Park, a unique spot in Iron County with massive rocks formed from 1.5 billion-year-old granite, per Missouri State Parks' website. Here's what 24/7 Tempo had to say:
"Rocks are a big theme on this list, and one of the places where you can see the largest rocks is Elephant Rocks State Park. There are many huge rocks and boulders that you can pass by as you hike and see the sights. One of the rock formations looks like elephants marching in a circus."
