Battle Ground
Indiana’s newest state park. Visitors can enjoy stepping back in time as they learn about the fascinating history of this area. Woodlands, wetlands and restored prairies lay along the famous Wabash and Tippecanoe Rivers within the park. The goal is to recreate the historic landscape of 1811 when the Shawnee leader Tecumseh and his brother, The Prophet, convinced tribes from all over North America to assemble and resist the ever growing European settlement which was taking their land. |

| This will be a state park like no other as it engages the visitor with both history and recreation. Picnic shelters and hiking trails available. |
