The International Friendship Gardens are located in Michigan City, Indiana. They cover 100 acres and are a collection of gardens representing six leading nations. Founded in 1936, the gardens were designed to promote friendship and peace among all citizens of the world.
There aren't a lot of flowers in these gardens, but it is a nice place to hike. Visitors will enjoy wooded trails, and Lake Lucerne, a small, spring-fed lake which is home to muskrats, herons, geese, and turtles.
The gardens are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Admission is free.
100 acres would be a lot of good hiking. And steps.

Deletefriendship and hiking - good combo. I'm sure it's all quite lovely and probably plenty of wildflowers spring up throughout the grounds
ReplyDeleteThe lake is really nice.
