A very Grounding Experience. Walking Barefoot. Came from Phoenix, Arizona. A Wonderful Place, got acclimated to Desert heat. 105 is the new 85. Don't worry you don't shovel DRY HEAT. A wonderful place, Hoosier Prairie. I can see why the REGION is becoming a destination for most FOLKS?😊

Tiny nature preserve but nice this time of year. Great place for a quick walk in the forest. Beautiful wildflowers and deers made the walk this morning even better.

The preserve covers a vast area where oaks, prairies, marshes, recovered agricultural lands, and ponds meet. Theres is a lot to discover here!

This place is right on a busy road and right next to a factory so your views are never fully nature. They place itself is neat, but it's very small and the location is poor.

Dogs are allowed with a leash. There are no trash cans so bring your own bag. Please do not venture off the trail or pick any of...
