Take a 57.3-mile drive to Nashville to explore the magnificent Brown County State Park at 1801 Indiana 46 East, Indiana’s largest park nicknamed the “Little Smokies” because of its close resemblance to the Great Smoky Mountains.

See the rare and endangered yellowwood tree, climb the Fire Tower for panoramic views of the hills o’ Brown, take a dip in the Water Park pool, and watch spectacular sunrises and sunsets. The park has a scenic modern family campground with electric and non-electric RV and tent campsites and the Abe Martin Lodge nestled between the hills with comfortable rooms and cabins.

The breathtaking McCormick’s Creek State Park, Indiana’s oldest state park, is at 250 McCormick Creek Park Road in Spencer, 60 miles from Indianapolis.

Hike, mountain bike, and horseback ride down winding trails through the large timbers of the McCormick’s Cove Nature Preserve and the indigenous flora of the Wolf Cave Nature Preserve,
Follow the trails deep into the forest carpeted with wildflowers past tumble waterfalls along the White River into the canyon.
