STATE PARKS
The northeast Indiana Lakes region is renowned for its spectacular scenery – a lake dappled landscape carved by retreating glaciers. The state parks in this region offer beautiful serene environments – a chance to get away from our everyday lives.
- Ouabache State Park, pronounced “Wabash”, is located just south of Fort Wayne boasts year round hiking, camping, and fishing.
- Pokagon State Park near Angola features beautiful Lake James, a charming Inn, and the state’s only refrigerated toboggan run.
- Chain O’Lakes State Park in Noble County is located only 19 miles from Fort Wayne. With its many lakes it is a boater’s paradise.
Spending time in nature promotes relaxation and good health and enriches our lives.
