State Park

In celebration of American Indian Heritage Day, join Ranger Julia for a 3-mile hike on November 27 at 10:00 AM along a portion of the Lonacona Loop Trail. During this walk, you will explore the landscapes that early pioneers and Indigenous peoples used to hunt and travel, and learn about the trail's namesake, Lonacona. The trail is moderately difficult, with a natural surface featuring rocks, tree roots, and fallen leaves. The hike is expected to take about 90 minutes.

Gather at the Lake House for a half-hour history hike with Ranger Beau. Take a step back in time and learn about the history of New Germany State Park, from the early German settlers to the park you see today. The hike will end at the Schoolhouse (a short walk from the Lake House).
