The 3 Dune Challenge
Hiking area
👍👍 This was the highlight of our trip to Indiana Dunes. Do know that the majority of the trail is on sand, which is coarse and rough and it gets everywhere. There's also two dunes you climb without stairs, which is pretty strenuous. The views and experience is worth it though. Be sure to go to the sta...

Sand Ridge Nature Center
Park
👍👍 This is a place to go and forget about your worries. Go for a walk, and just feel the breeze, smell the falling leaves in the air. The birds singing in the tall trees. You'll spend a good amount of time out there so bring plenty of water.

Indiana Dunes National Park Cowles Bog Trailhead
Hiking area
👍 DO NOT start trail from far corner of the parking lot. Start by walking back to the entrance road and across the street. Trail has a very nice mix of scenery for a Lake Michigan area trail. The biggest and best payoff is at the far end when you get to Lake Michigan!

👍👍 These are privately owned homes so you are not able to get an up close view of them but there are informational signs posted in front of every one of them except the tropical house. A couple of them are experiencing renovations so you’re not able to see them as well as usual. Definitely worth a qu...

😠 Such a waste. As others have stated, this used to be a beautifully wooded wetland with adequate seasonal drainage to the Calumet river. Heron nests & wildlife of all sorts were abundant. Ever since the Army Corps of Engineers walled off this 120+ acres, the water has stagnated. No longer is ther...
