About Waubonsie State Park
Rolling terrain in the Loess Hills marks this landscape, formed by wind-deposited soil that shapes the ridges and valleys within the park. The park carries the name of Chief Wabaunsee of the Potawatomi people, tying the grounds to regional Native American history. Visitors here find a preserved stretch of this distinctive hill formation, uncommon outside a narrow band of the Midwest.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
