Stretch your legs along one of the hiking trails or cast a line to see what’s biting, then visit the Zeigler Woods Nature Preserve that nestles in the southwest corner of the park.

Just to the north lies the Prairie Creek Reservoir, which serves as a recreation hub for the city of Muncie. There’s everything from boating and fishing to hiking and dirt bike riding on offer, as well as numerous horse riding and ATV trails. Near the western shore of the Prairie Creek Reservoir is the Munsee Woods Nature Preserve, which protects a glacial meltwater valley and its spring-fed wetlands that sustain a variety of flora and fauna species.

Drive south from Losantville, and you’ll arrive at Brookville Lake, which is home to the Whitewater Memorial State Park and the Mounds State Recreation Area. Both are popular fishing destinations, with walleye, bass, and bluegill all for the taking.
