Turkey Run State Park is an unexpectedly miracle of nature. Nestled in what appears to be very flat farm country in west central Indiana, water, over the centuries, has carved out a wonderland of canyons, hollows, and even a “punch bowl.” The good people of Indiana have opened this land up for the public to get up close and personal with Mother Nature, mostly in the form of various hiking trails (rated easy, moderate, rugged and very rugged). These are more vigorous than ordinary park trails, but that makes them all the more fun. The trails are well marked. You can also go horseback riding, play all kinds of sports, swim, camp, etc. (check their website). Some hints: shoes are important. I felt invincible in my waterproof hiking shoes. Your feet will get wet, and tennis shoes will drown. My wife used her trusty walking stick for balance (and many hikers found a suitable branch among the millions of choices lying around). Even the moderate trails have some tricky passages; be patient with yourself and you will figure it out. The stone steps can be slippery and are always uneven—take your time. Even the wooden stairs are often uneven, and prone to crumbling. Again, watch what you are doing for a safe journey. I visited this park when I was very young, and have vivid memories of its wonders. Time has not diminished my joy at seeing this place as filled with wonder as it always has been.
