Missouri's Elephant Rocks State Park voted No. 3 of America's favorite natural landmarks

Elephant Rocks State Park in Missouri came in at No. 3 in a nation-wide survey ranking Americans' favorite natural landmarks.

Aqua Expeditions polled 3,113 United States residents on which local natural landmarks they would most like to visit. The top three were Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Niagara Falls and Elephant Rocks State Park.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park is on the border of North Carolina and Tennessee.

"Unsurprisingly, this destination is the most visited national park in America, having attracted more than 14.1 million visitors in 2021 alone," according to a news release from Aqua Expeditions.
