Calumet Trail, National Recreation Trail in Porter County, United States.
The Calumet Trail extends 9.1 miles through northwestern Indiana, following a crushed limestone path parallel to U.S. Route 12 and the South Shore line.
Established in 1976 as Indiana's first bicycle trail, the path underwent major renovations in 2001 to replace deteriorated asphalt with crushed limestone surfaces.
The trail connects Indiana Dunes National Park with Indiana Dunes State Park, providing residents and visitors access to natural landscapes and wildlife observation.
The trail operates daily from 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM, offering multiple access points and connections to the Porter Brickyard Trail and Dunes Kankakee Trail.
Located within wetlands and near Lake Michigan's south shore, the trail features sections where users can spot deer, dragonflies, and native plants.
