Planning a hunt in Indiana

Indiana DNR’s Where to Hunt resources help locate opportunities before you choose a specific property. Follow through to the destination’s own information to see its map, contacts and current hunting procedures.

For an Indiana property, distinguish the hunt location from the nearest road or recreation entrance. Save a confirmed parking point and any check-in details you need. Check current regulations and property-specific information together, and revise your route if the official map differs from what a general basemap suggests.

Check the property and the route

Read the property's current rules, closures and permit requirements. Confirm parking and every part of the approach; a public parcel can be surrounded by private land. A road or path visible on imagery is not proof of public access. Resolve uncertain boundaries with the managing agency.

Use with Free Hunting Map

Open Layers and enable relevant PAD-US public-land manager categories. Compare topo and aerial imagery, mark verified parking and save notes for the spots you plan to check. PAD-US is a planning aid, not a legal boundary or hunting-permission map; parcel coverage in the app is limited to Wisconsin.

View your approach at the zoom levels you need and test the cached map offline before leaving. Keep official property maps and rules with your trip materials.
