Potawatomi Wildlife Park is a 317-acre complex that consists of fields, woodlands, ponds, and wetlands and is bordered by the Tippecanoe River. Potawatomi Wildlife Park is managed as a natural sanctuary for plants and animals of northern Indiana and provides educational activities for schools in the area, as well as a site for recreational activities, such as hiking or bird watching.
Historical Significance
Potawatomi Wildlife Park preserves both a prehistorical and historical site of significance to the regions past. The Park preserves both prehistorical and historical Indian encampments, the Steven Ben-nack Potawatomi village, a portion of the Goshen-Logansport trail, and the Tippecanoe River ford where several early Indian trails crossed the river.
