Much of Indiana will be in the zone of totality for the total solar eclipse on Monday, April 8, including 54 properties managed by the DNR that will provide an excellent vantage point for viewing the once-in-a-lifetime event. Many properties have eclipse-themed programming on April 8 and in the days leading up to the eclipse, too.
If you plan to visit a DNR property within the zone of totality, expect to have a lot of company. When parking areas are full, gates will close to cars and pedestrians. We would love to have you visit a DNR property, but if you live in the zone of totality, consider viewing the eclipse from home.
The DNR website provides more information on viewing times and tips if you plan on enjoying the eclipse from a DNR property.
