Mounds State Park
What people are saying
Our first time at this state park. The trails were marked very well and we hiked all of the trails in an about 3 hours. There is an area to swim near trail 6. I’d definitely visit Mounds State Park again.
This is one of my favorite spots to sit, reflect, meditate, then pack it all in with a beautiful hike...a hike which includes rare up and down opportunities here in central Indiana! The energy of the place is soothing and welcoming for all.
Small campground but very nice showering facilities. The park outside the campground has a lot of trails and a launch point for kayaks or canoes.
Very cool place. We went as part of a field trip for my child's school. So we had a guide that told us about the Mounds, a live animal demonstration and a lesson on the atl atl (a weapon used for hunting). Where we also got to try our hand at using it. It was all very interesting and just a peaceful place to be. The staff was all very courteous and knowledgeable. I myself learned a lot. The cost to us was discounted as a group. I'm not sure of the cost of admission, but I know it was cheap. Maybe $9? Parking was easy. There is also a little gift shop that sells a handful of neat items and reasonable prices. Will definitely revisit with the rest of the family.
We enjoyed a 70 minute hike through beautiful trails. The park is clean. The restrooms were clean. Picnic tables are scattered around the park. We enjoyed a picnic lunch, and our grandson enjoyed the playground. It was a great day for us at Mounds Park.
