Publisher's summary

THE ONLY HIKING GUIDEBOOK DEDICATED TO OUR NATION'S NEWEST NATIONAL PARK! Imagine a place where you can stroll magnificent Lake Michigan beaches and scramble over towering sand dunes, where you can explore mysterious marshes filled with carnivorous plants and amble about peaceful oak savannas, where you can roam among migrating birds on their stopover and traipse about historic turn-of-the-century homesteads. The place is real: It’s called Indiana Dunes National Park. With the park stretching more than two-dozen miles from end to end and the large crowds, though, how can you ensure that you see its main sights when vacationing or driving through? That’s what Best Sights to See at Indiana Dunes National Park answers. In this volume, we’ve listed the top 10 most popular sights and detail the top day hiking trails to best experience them. This book includes TWO BONUS SECTIONS: "Day Hiking Primer" AND "National Parks Primer."
