Indiana Dunes National Park is located in Northwest Indiana and spread out over several different sites along Lake Michigan and inland.
The Little Calumet River Trail is one of the best trails at Indiana Dunes National Park. It’s located near Bailly Homestead and Chellberg Farm in Porter, Indiana.
Porter is a small town in Indiana adjacent to Chesterton. It has some of the most important historic sites in Northwest Indiana.
The Heron Rookery Trail at Indiana Dunes National Park follows a portion of the Little Calumet River. The main east parking lot is located in Michigan City while the west parking lot is in Chesterton.
Pinhook Bog is quite possibly the most interesting section of Indiana Dunes National Park. It’s got an incredible natural history and outstanding plant biodiversity. Pinhook Bog was designated a National Natural Landmark in 1965 – a year before the park was established.
Miller Woods, located in the Miller area of Gary, Indiana, is the westernmost section of Indiana Dunes National Park.
Chesterton, Indiana, is a small town that is also the gateway to the Indiana Dunes National Park and State Park. I went to high school there and of course I hated it, but after 20 years I realized it’s not so bad for a such a small place.
Cowles Bog is one of the most important areas of Indiana Dunes National Park. It’s located north of the Bailly Homestead and Chellberg Farm area.
The newest section of Indiana Dunes National Park is the Portage Lakefront and Riverwalk in Portage, Indiana. It opened in October 2008 and is a popular place to spot migrating birds.
