Indiana might be located in the Midwest, but that doesn't mean you - or anyone else - should be out here dismissing it as a "flyover" state. After all, we all know that flyover states are boring, and Indiana is far from boring. There are all sorts of natural wonders in Indiana, many of which most folks (save except maybe for the locals) don't even know are things. Example: there is such a thing as - get this - the Grand Canyon of Indiana, and though it might not be quite as "grand" as the more famous one in Arizona, it's still an utterly awe-inspiring wonder worthy of the admiration of the entire world. Come out to Turkey Run State Park, and experience a natural wonder unlike anything you ever thought you'd discover in the Midwest. Check it out, and try not to fall in love (impossible!):

Turkey Run State Park is so ridiculously beautiful that it's more like something from a fairy tale than what most folks would imagine the Midwest to be.

Stunning canyons, carved primarily out of sandstone over millions of years, line many of the breathtaking hiking trails (of which there are 11).

The park is open year-round, but to experience the canyon in all its true glory, we strongly recommend checking it out during the warmer months.

It'll be a deep, lush, emerald green, and on special days you'll even find it accompanied by a mist that only makes things even more magical.

To access the canyon (and most of the trails), you'll want to cross the suspension bridge over Sugar Creek.

Once you're on the other side, prepare yourself: you are about to enter an enchanting world unlike anywhere else in the Hoosier State.

Interestingly, this area - known as the Rocky Hollow-Falls Canyon Nature Preserve - is what Indiana once looked like for the most part.

What is now the Indiana we all know and love was once a heavily-wooded region, and this amazing preserve is one of the very few remaining untouched parts of our state.

All of the trails are open from dawn to dusk, so you've got plenty of time to enjoy one (or more).

Be sure to wear good, sturdy shoes, and be ready to get wet - there are plenty of creek crossings to conquer, but something about them just makes this area feel even wilder.

There's a trail at Turkey Run Park - and through the canyon - for everyone, no matter their skill level.

You'll find a mixture of very easy, very challenging, and somewhere-in-between trails for your enjoyment. Few things are as humbling as a stroll through the beautiful Grand Canyon of Indiana. Sure, it's not THE Grand Canyon... but it's definitely grand in all its own ways.
