For hiking, fishing, and education on the geology and make up of this historical part of the world, visit Falls of the Ohio in Clarksville, Indiana. Upon your arrival, you are encouraged to view the massive number of fossils that line the shallow riverbeds. These fossils date back hundreds of millions of years and give a slight glimpse into the ancient wildlife once inhabiting this place.

Onsite is a thorough interpretive center with helpful guides, willing to explain to you the processes and weather systems that formed the land as you see it today. Aquariums give you a clearer view of the river’s ecosystem and a short movie takes you through an educational chain of events.

While you’re enjoying the outdoors, it is important to be as informed as possible. And of course, the waterfalls that flow along the Ohio River are some of Indiana’s most beautiful and accessible.
