The Ambler Flatwoods North Loop Features A Tunnel Of Trees In Indiana And It’s Positively Magical
Michigan City, Indiana is a beautiful place. It’s teeming with life, from wonderful shops and eateries to breathtaking views of Lake Michigan (not to mention the awesome Michigan City pier and lighthouse). However, it’s also got some gems that are truly hidden – so much so that many locals aren’t even aware of them. One such hidden gem is the wildly amazing Ambler Flatwoods Nature Preserve; there are several delightful hiking trails in this beautiful, not-so-little place, but there’s one in particular that stands out far above the rest (hint: it’s got an epic tunnel of trees in Indiana). Check it out:
Hidden away - almost literally - within LaPorte County is the Ambler Flatwoods Nature Preserve.
But there's one trail in particular that, should you hike it, you'll stumble upon something so magical that it feels like it was ripped right out of the pages of a fairy tale.
It's one of the Midwest's best-kept secrets: a deep, dark tunnel of trees, luring hikers to come closer and see what secrets it holds.
There's a lot to take in in such a decently-sized place, but always be sure to look small: look under rocks. Check out the flora, fauna and fungi. It's an incredible place to kill an entire afternoon...
...but we just can't seem to get over that spellbinding tree tunnel.
It's definitely not every day that you encounter something so splendid - unless, of course, you choose to visit the preserve daily (we're not gonna judge).
Come out to the awesome Ambler Flatwoods Nature Preserve and enjoy yourself.
Do the amazing North Loop hike, experience the tree tunnel, and then go wild (pun intended) exploring the rest of the place.

When she's not out and about dancing with the meanest storms on planet Earth for funsies she can be found wandering, shooting landscapes, writing, editing photos, and otherwise up to no good. Legend has it that she can also be occasionally spotted typing up short bios in the third person, but those rumors are unsubstantiated.
