Ouabache State Park

We've stayed close to home as our area works through its re-opening phases due to COVID-19. We recently ventured out to Ouabache State Park in Indiana. A great opportunity to get outdoors, but also be safe and keep a distance from other people. This was our first visit to the park and it was a good one. The weather was perfect. Not too cold. Not too hot. This state park has a good number of nice hiking trails. We hiked about six miles. Along the way, we found this critter:


Cool! Near one of the trails, or you can drive and park in the lot next to it, is a bison exhibit which is a unique feature of this park.


The bison were right up next to the fence on the trail, so we got a very close up look at them! Again, very cool!

In addition to the trails and bison exhibit, Ouabachee State Park has a nice, small lake you can walk around. You can rent kayaks and go out on the lake or you can rent bicycles and take a ride on the separate paved bike trail that goes through the park.

A great state park in Indiana and one I'm glad we visited!
