At the southern-most tip of Lake Michigan and the Calumet River, Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore offers one of the most bio-diverse ecosystems in the entire National Park Service, located a little over an hour by train from Chicago. The South Shore Line offers affordable commuter train fares to and from the Miller Station. From there, it is a 20-minute walk to the Paul Douglas Center for Environmental Education.
