A 1.2 mile hiking trail leads you down into the canyon under a lush canopy of large trees, through rock shelters and past high seasonal waterfalls. It could take two leisurely hours to complete the loop.
Lush vegetation is found along the cliffs, waterfalls and canyon floor.
Hemlock, a tall evergreen with short needles and small cones, thrives in the canyon's cool climate. Wintergreen, a protected plant, is also found here. While common in northern forests, this is only one of three populations of wintergreen left in Indiana. Wild geranium, French's shooting star, mountain laurel, and liverwort are some of the other plants found here. A cool climate, created by the box canyon shape, sandstone rock formations, and seasonal waterfalls is responsible for the unique trees and plants that grow here .
