I’m Headed To Corydon, Indiana! #ThisIsIndiana #OMTravels
I am super excited because this afternoon I will be headed to Corydon, Indiana for a fun filled weekend! Full of caves and caverns that we get to explore, among historical sites and much more, I am excited to see what Corydon has to offer! From Cincinnati, Ohio, Corydon is a little over 2 hours away. This will be my first time visiting. Let me tell you a little bit about some of the places that I will be visiting during my stay.
Hotel
I will be staying at the Holiday Inn in Corydon. I have always had good experiences at Holiday Inns, so I am sure this one will be no different!
Attractions
- Indiana Caverns – Located outside historic Corydon, Indiana, this is Indiana’s Longest Cave. There will be a walking tour with a boat ride, and I will see and learn about diverse ecosystems, ice age bones, an amazing waterfall, various formations, and great heights and depths.
Marengo Caves and Cave Country Canoes – This U.S. National Natural Landmark features walking tours, canoeing and gemstone mining.- Squire Boon Caverns – Squire Boon Caverns is called “A treasure of Indiana history and the American pioneer spirit.” Squire Boone and his brother, Daniel, discovered these caverns in 1790. What a great piece of history!
- Deere Farms – This will include a pumpkin patch, and southern Indiana’s largest corn maze. This runs through November 2nd. I’ve never experienced a corn maze, so this will be my first time doing one.
