It’s not too late in the season to take a comfortable stroll through the beautiful green forested path that is McVey Memorial Forest in Farmland, Indiana.
This gorgeous area is part public park and part animal sanctuary.

We’ve got the geocaching bug and were eager to find a couple of geocaches in and around McVey Memorial Forest.
Although we left empty-handed (we definitely weren’t dressed appropriately for heavy duty trail walking) we did enjoy the scenic view!
There’s a very long trail that begins near the covered picnic area and takes you on quite a trek before you even get to the forested part of things! That was fun! It’s so well-kept it’s easy walking for even the youngest member of our family.
After our busy trip spent exploring small Indiana towns, though, he was pretty worn out and wanted a boost for a short part of the way. We were all dragging a bit by the end!

After lots of walking down a very nice grassy path, we were surprised to get to a bridge in the more forested section of the trail.
The boys thought that was pretty neat. We couldn’t help but agree! Trees, water, and a bridge–how scenic!
What you can’t really see is how this Indiana trail gets very small and a bit overgrown just after the bridge. This is when we had to call it quits. We just weren’t up for that kind of expedition after our bustling travels.
Now that you know about the change in trail conditions, you can arrive prepared and ready!
