Battle Ground
Description:
Indiana’s newest state park encompasses nearly 2200 acres and opened in 2004. Camping, hiking, birding and biking can be enjoyed. This park is unique because of the areas of prairie, prairie wildflower beds, and the seeps and fens of the wetlands. Several picnic areas can be found each with their own handicap accessible playgrounds. Four shelter houses. |
 |
Campground with 110 modern campsites. Future plans include the development of a nature center, additional hiking/biking trails, cabins, inn, fishing lake, swimming pool, youth campground and campstore. The park is located adjacent to Historic Prophetstown where you can experience Native American culture and lifestyles and American farming practices and farm lifestyles of the 1920s.
Driving Directions
Take I-65 to exit number 178 which is SR 43 Go SOUTH on SR 43 (away from the park---trust me this is correct) for a very short distance and then turn LEFT onto Burnett Road. Burnett Road will "T" into 9th Street. Go right on 9th Street to Swisher Road which will be a HARD left immediately after the Veterinary Office. Once on Swisher Road you will cross back under the Interstate and find the Park Gatehouse directly ahead.
