At first glance, Brown County State Park resembles the Great Smoky Mountains in miniature. Nearly 16,000 acres (6,500 hectares) of narrow ridges, misty ravines, lush gullies and rugged mountaintops make up Indiana’s largest parkland. Walk amid southern Indiana’s wild landscapes and see a remarkable range of tree species, which make this region popular for viewing colourful autumn foliage. Go hiking, biking and horseback riding on the park’s trails or drop a fishing line into one of the park’s two lakes. Follow Brown County State Park’s exciting network of trails. The 12 different hiking trails cover more than 18 miles (29 kilometres) of the parkland. Hike to pristine lakes, Hesitation Point, the Ogle Hollow Nature Preserve or the Fire Tower. Explore a large proportion of the park by mountain bike or on horseback. Look for some of the region’s rare plants and animals, such as yellowwood trees and purple finches. If you have your own equipment, go skiing or sledding in winter. The park’s beautiful open fields are perfect for beginners and cross-country skiers. Go fishing at Ogle Lake or Strahl Lake to hook bass and bluegill. Take a rowboat or an electric motorboat out on Ogle Lake. Permits for boating and fishing are available at the park office. During the warmer months, visit the nature centre and country store at the southern end of the park. Food, firewood, souvenirs and fishing bait are stocked at the country store. Learn about the region’s fascinating ecosystems at the nature centre. Stay overnight at the Abe Martin Lodge, which is located just north of the park. Dine at the restaurant, rent a cabin or splash at the lodge’s indoor water park. If you feel like experiencing a nature getaway, pitch a tent at one of several campgrounds within the park. Brown County State Park is located in south-central Indiana. The city of Bloomington is a 30-minute drive away and the town of Nashville is located on the park’s northern border. The park is open daily and charges a fee for entry and campsite reservations. ## Plan a trip to see Brown County State Park Price found within the past 48 hours.
