The horse trails are amazing. I raised 2 daughters doing hours of these rides together. Best thing I ever did with my life. Hard work and reward. Good place for families to feel a part of nature. Your kids will look back some day. Mine do. My youngest at 34 just went out trail riding with a friend yesterday all day at the Charles Deam Wilderness Area south of Lake Monroe.
Are all near ring road or some f road
No F roads, all were right off the ring road. The F roads were closed the first week of June when we were there.

Thank you for the video it was helpful!
Nice video. Of a fantastic place. But nice to see the kids, smiling and enjoying me with their parents that’s a precious thing. Seeing families together.
Are there any facilities to change at Haggard Park?
Thanks for the tour..
Beautiful and thank you for sharing. My favorite hike is around Ogle Lake. It’s a longer hike than Strahl Lake hike and it’s absolutely gorgeous. Hubby and I live in Indianapolis but we also have a little fishing cabin about 15-20 minutes from this park so we come to it often. Sometimes I come here by myself and drive through the park. Very therapeutic!
Did you happen to get at look at the tent sites? I have a tent with a 10 x 10 footprint. Most places seem to have sites big enough to pitch it well but I thought I'd ask. The only downside to backing up to nothing in a tent is the mosquitoes are so much worse in the trees 😅. I can work with that though!
Hey there! So any of the electric sites can be reserved for tents too, there are 5 sites that are tent only at the state park. Most are 70x 30 So that should give you plenty of space! If those are sold out, the Indiana Dunes National Park has Duneland Campground which is no electric tent sites. These aren’t walkable to the beach like the state park is though.

Glad you enjoyed Victoria. We go there at least once a year in the spring to explore the island. There is so much beauty.
We were there the last weekend of October for peak leaves.
U can ride with kids on the mountain coaster - tandem

It’s my favorite place in indiana to see the changing leaves!
Great content
What time did you get in line for Hurricane Ridge? Traveling there in two weeks.
We got there around 7:45-8:00am and waited about 2 hours. We were also one of the last let up, so I’d aim earlier if you can.
fantastic
Thank you! Cheers!
thats not that rough. thers a lot of New Zealand roads that are worse. our SH1 is like a goat track 😂
🤣 it was way better than we expected
Nice!
Excellent video welcome to the PNW!! Great job filming and editing some of our favorite hikes and places to visit in the area. We can't wait to go back and visit now that we vlog. You guys did a great job communicating along the way and could see how much you loved and appreciated this area. We have subscribed and will be supporting you and your channel. Wishing you more great adventures and a growing channel! Hope we see you on the road one day Just Ramblin Around!
Thanks so much! I subscribed so I can watch some of your adventures also! Happy travels

I've been going to st Joseph and silver beach for 15 years from Cincinnati area. Love south haven last five or so years too. I'm going to try Hagar now, thank you
It’s such a gorgeous area! You’ll love Hagar Beach!
Good realistic overview. Planning on the ring road with my fam. My oldest son is special needs and thinking that a motorhome rental would be best for us. Your thoughts on any issues with a motorhome for the drive you took?
A motorhome would be perfect for this trip. Most of the major sites have large parking lots and driving is really easy there! A great choice!
Hocking Hills 7 hiking areas- watch before you go!
glad you and your family enjoy the trip. May i ask whats the name of the glacier guide? thanks!
We used arctic adventures and did the glacier explorer tour that was moderate and 4+ hours
What month was it
It was the first week of June.
Marhaba aruba on google maps.
Just came back from Iceland after a trip of 9 days. They built a wide bridge that you can drive across, (turn left at about 3 km before view point) then turn right on a very bumpy road for about 2km to a parking lot (at 1:45 in the video). 4x4 is recommended, but not necessary during good day. From there, walking about 3km to the Canyon, or you can hike 5km to the Canyon. BTW, there is nothing to see from the view point on west side, you HAVE TO go to the east side.
So cool!!
Nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great Vlog guys. Have visited Iceland 5 times doing the ring road once. I was lucky enough to see the Volcano erupting on the ring road trip in 2021 🌋 Amazing. Agree with you that driving the East was the best for me too. It may not have all the major tourist spots but that’s why I liked it so much. It was amazing land/sea scapes without the hordes. Heading to do the ring road again in May for 7 days so watching as many vlogs as I can. Brings back the memories 🇮🇸❤️
Great video ! Glad that you had great weather too . My son and I are doing the ring road next September, and we can’t wait to go to many of the places that your family went.
You will love it! It was a place I’ll always want to go back to! We were lucky with weather. Before we left rain was forecasted every day! And we ended up with only maybe 1 day of rain out of 9.
Gorgeous trail my friend, this whole place is just beautiful! Love it!
It really is! Cheers!
Nice! The Smokies are so beautiful. I was there with a friend last year. Even had snow/sleet in MAY up on Clingman’s Dome.
They are beautiful! Clingmans Dome was closed when we were there this time. I’ve been before, though and what a view! The Smokey’s make me 😁
@@takingthebackroadsfamily3811 Sorry it is Clingmans, not Clingman’s.
@@takingthebackroadsfamily3811 I remember you’ll. You’ll were the ones who went to Tuckaleechee Caverns. We ended up going to Forbidden Caverns on the first day. Good Times!!
How long did it take to walk from the second parking lot to the canyon?
About 25-30 minutes
How far is a grocery store from there ?
There is a huge grocery store in the town of Chesterton, it’s only about a 10 minute drive from the state park
