Youth Camps and Retreat Centers in Indiana

Indiana calls itself the “Crossroads of America” due to its advantageous location at the intersection of four major roadways. Located in the American Midwest and Great Lakes Region, Indiana is both geographically and culturally diverse. Northern and central Indiana are largely flat while southern Indiana has more rugged and hilly terrain marked by valleys and large limestone caves.
The diverse topography and climate (very cold winter and hot, humid summers) make it a natural point of interest for those looking for a wide range of outdoor activities and adventures. The state offers a vast array of wintertime sports like skiing, snow-tubing and ice skating. The warmer months are perfect for enjoying hiking or mountain biking in one of the beautiful state parks or enjoying the waters of Lake Michigan.
