Peaceful sanctuary in Hobart, Indiana

Welcome to Bur Oak Woods, a hidden gem in Hobart, Indiana, located at 330 North Liverpool Road. This unique park is home to one of Indiana’s rarest natural communities: the bur oak savanna. Here, you will find majestic bur oak trees, some of which are several hundred years old, with branches that spread as wide as the trees are tall. These ancient trees stand as silent witnesses to the past, where Native Americans once paused during hunting expeditions and where long-gone animals like bears, cougars, elk, wolves, and buffalo roamed freely. European settlers once cleared their farms within sight of these magnificent trees, yet today, the bur oaks continue to thrive, serving as a poignant reminder of the landscape's rich history. The park is a sanctuary, featuring thick woods in the process of being restored to their original savanna state, along with wet depressions and open sedge meadows. It is a haven for birds and amphibians, offering a peaceful retreat for nature enthusiasts and wildlife watchers alike.
