Backpacking: O'Bannon Woods State Park
For this trip, based on your time available and inclination, we explore a portion of or the entire length of the famed 24-mile Adventure Hiking Trail. It holds true to its name as it travels through O’Bannon Woods State Park and every region of Harrison-Crawford State Forest, Indiana’s largest, between the three waterways it contains. The trail features natural bluffs overlooking the Ohio River, Blue River, and Indian Creek, mixed with the karst landscape of caves and sinkholes, and the diversity and density of native wildlife and vegetation, all enhancing the trail’s character. This trip offers a challenging excursion for intermediate backpackers or those wanting to experience the natural beauty and rolling hills of Southern Indiana.
