Your guide to Indiana’s best values in outdoor recreation is available now at dnr.IN.gov/5280.htm.

The Department of Natural Resources’ 2015 Indiana recreation guide is the source for information on state parks, lakes, state park inns, fish and wildlife areas, state forests and other DNR properties.

Local retail outlets, state parks, lakes and other DNR properties will have free printed copies available in early February. The guides also will be available at the DNR booth at the Indianapolis Boat, Sport and Travel Show, Feb. 20 through March 1, at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis.

Annual entrance passes can be purchased in person at the gatehouse or offices of state park properties during business hours, at the Indiana Government Center South in Indianapolis during business hours, or at innsgifts.com.

Indiana resident passes cost $40. For individuals 65 years old or older, the price is $20. Annual passes for vehicles with out-of-state license plates are $60. Normal daily gate fees for residents at most properties are $5 per vehicle.
