Hiking
New Chapel Trailhead is a popular access point on the Knobstone Trail with a small parking lot. While there’s no formal campground at the trailhead itself, you’ll find plenty of designated backcountry sites along the trail in either direction. Parking is available but can fill up on weekends, so arrive early if this is the place you’ve chosen to start your hike. A solid choice for jumping into Indiana’s rugged, rewarding “little Appalachian” experience!
