Hike more than five miles of rugged trails, taking visitors to sites through forests and canyons. Winding trails lead to unique sandstone formations known as the Copperas Beds, named for the mineral deposits left behind from erosion of the stone. The trail continues through wooded areas into oak-covered hillsides and along hilltop prairies.
 Explore Boneyard Hollow, a box canyon featuring rocky streams and beautiful cliff formations. Legend says the canyon is believed to be the spot where Native Americans from the Woodland Culture drove bison and deer off the cliff. Near the southeast end of the park, Native American mounds from the Woodland Culture were once used for ceremonial and burial purposes. Out of respect, please do not disturb or tread across the mounds.
 Stay overnight in one of two family cabins or at the park’s campground. The cabins sleep four and are equipped with small refrigerators, cook-top stove, microwave and sink. The Dolliver Campground overlooks the Des Moines River and contains electric sites, a modern restroom and shower building, and dump station. One fourth of the campsites are available on a first-come, first-serve basis and advance campsite and cabin reservations can be made online through the online reservation system for Dolliver Memorial State Park.
 Reserve one of two day-use lodges or an open shelter at Dolliver. The South Lodge and Center Lodge are historical CCC structures known for their rustic architectural style. Both lodges and shelter can be reserved through the online reservation system for Dolliver Memorial State Park for large group events.
