Sledding in Northwest Indiana

 

You can enjoy sledding at Lake County Park’s Oak Ridge Prairie in Griffith and Lemon Lake in Crown Point until March, provided there’s a sufficient snow base. Give a call after 9 am to confirm if the hills are open before planning your visit.

For an exhilarating downhill experience, locals often favor spots like Centennial Park in Munster, Lost Marsh Golf Course in Hammond, and the Lake County Fairgrounds in Crown Point.
