Hidden gems - Parks in Indianapolis, United States not to miss (Updated March, 2024)

Park

👍👍 This is definitely a place you need to visit if you come to Purdue. When you clap in the middle of it the clap sounds very high pitched. You have to go here at least once if you go to Purdue. There’s a lot of people who will set up hammocks in the trees around here and study or relax.

Leonard Springs Nature Park Rest Area

Park

👍👍 Fun park. We enjoyed walking on the old dam. Being able see a large beaver dam. There is a nice cave/waterfall at the park. Hiking is easy with moderate alternate routes for those who choose. It is a great quick stop not far from Bloomington. The parking lot is small and tight.

South Street Square Park

Park

👍👍 Absolutely one of the cleanest places in Indianapolis. Sprinklers are going on and off in different parts of the Square. Totally awesome views in every direction you look. No trash, no weeds, green grass, the sound of the sprinklers spraying the mist. Definitely a five star. Thanks SOUTH STREET SQUA...
