PROPHETSTOWN STATE PARK

Join us at Prophetstown! From I-465 N, take I-65 north to Lafayette about 50 miles to exit 178, SR 43. Turn left at the bottom of the ramp and then make your first left on Burnetts Rd after the interstate. When this short road ends, turn right on 9th St and take the first left on Swisher Rd which will lead into the park (fee). Meet at the basketball courts at the very back of the park. Restrooms are potentially not available at this trailhead. Stop at Bluestream Lot in the park which has vault toilets on the way to our meeting spot if needed. Bundle up for a moderate hike, on natural surfaces, as we hike along the Wabash and Tippecanoe rivers on Trail 3 which is between 3 and 4 miles and has a boardwalk, scenic viewpoints and wildlife lookout spot. Leader: Ari Shifron (812-272-6926)
Meetup guests are always welcome and there is no fee to hike with us but please no pets. Meetup attendees will be joined by members of the Indianapolis Hiking Club who do not have to sign up for the hike on Meetup. Expect to start promptly at 9:30.
