Ferdinand State Forest
Ferdinand State Forest boasts one of the most beautiful woodlands in all of Indiana. In 1933, Local conservationists bought 900 acres and built the lake in order to fish and hunt, making way for the area to be fantastic for squirrel hunting, deer hunting, and fishing. Just make sure you have the proper permits upon arrival! There are five popular trails to hit, all averaging roughly two miles in length. Go for a swim in the designated Ferdinand Lake beach area and enjoy the picnic shelter houses available for the day. One day not enough? For a small fee, you can register at the campground check-in booth and find a primitive camp spot. The more rugged campers will really dig the serene waters and the lack of noise pollution killin’ their vibes.

The camping may be primitive, but at least the view’s pristine. Pitch a tent at the Ferdinand Campground for some stress-free camping beneath a canopy of trees, with the banks of not one, not two, but THREE lakes close by. Plus, the campsites are conveniently located alongside the hiking trails that crisscross through the forest. Score!Read more...
