Try out snowshoeing and wander through a winter wonderland at Chellberg Farm every Saturday and Sunday in January and February from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. Stop by the farmhouse to warm up and learn about the area’s history. Snowshoes can be checked out at the farmhouse, but please note there are a limited number of snowshoes available. Snowshoeing is also dependent on the amount of snow on the ground with a minimum of three inches of snow required. Regardless of snow, the farmhouse will be open for hikers to stop by and enjoy. Call 1-219-395-1882 for snow conditions. This program is sponsored by Friends of Indiana Dunes. For more information on how to join, visit dunefriends.org.
