Weinberg-King State Fish and Wildlife Area, also known as Weinberg-King State Park, is a state park in Schuyler County, Illinois, near Augusta. It covers 772 acres (312 hectares) and was established in May 1968. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources manages it.

The park sits on the edge of a large glacial plain from the Illinois Glaciation. Williams Creek has cut through the till to reveal Pennsylvanian sandstone. The land was donated by the Weinberg-King family in 1968.

Activities and wildlife: The ponds hold bass, bluegill, and catfish. There are about 30 miles of trails for hiking. The area also supports hunting for upland game and birds, including squirrels, doves, quail, rabbits, woodcock, white-tailed deer, and wild turkey.

Access: Illinois Route 101 passes through the park.
