Rivertown Trail

Reviewed By DealinandDishin - Newburgh, Indiana

I love to walk here. You can adjust your walk from 20/30 minutes to over an hour. Some days I walk the whole almost 6 miles from Frame Road to the New Lock and Dam. I feel safe walking alone, with a friend, or with my kids.
The kids and I will walk 30-40 minutes and then stop at The Refinery/Lucid for coffee for me and soda or ice cream for them.

This was the second stop on our trip. They were just starting to harvest the grapes for the season. We learned a bit about the issues finding people to work the harvest. We liked the Catawba, Soft Red and Chardonel. All are sweet and fruity.

John James Audubon Museum

Reviewed By tomcut56 - Dayton OH

Henderson just south of Evansville IN flourishes as a key crossroad in eastern Middle West. Unexpectedly I found this privately-supported museum in the state park of the same name. Around 1918 a local art-lover and birder Susan Towles single-handedly collected Audubon's artworks from his heirs and others and created this fabulous museum where you learn his life and art. Once you see these original paintings of the birds and associated plants, you will be absolutely convinced that no photograph can ever better it. Come and see birds on the pages of Elephant Folio edition, binding of which is 3.35 by 2.27 feet and the painting is whopping 26 1/2 x 39 1/2". This is real stuff, no amount of imagination can approximate.

This museum focuses on the history of the Town of Newburgh and is itself housed in the historic Old Newburgh Presbyterian Church. Exhibits rotate and have included a tribute to Marcia Yockey, local coal mining, Kuebler's Garden, and Cypress Beach. Plan to spend about an hour visiting. Access is easy from street parking.

USS LST Ship Memorial

The USS LST Ship Memorial is the last fully operational WWII Landing Ship, Tank in the United States, and is dedicated to these very important ships and the men who served on them. The USS LST 325 was one of the over 200 that participated in the Normandy Landings. Tours of the ship are guided as the ship is fully operational, and run on the hour with the last tour going on ship at 3:00 PM.

We were I town for a concert which just happened to be on Veterans Day. We wanted to see the ship so we went and they were having a free breakfast with Veterans that we didn't know about but graciously accepted. How amazing to eat with all of these amazing men and women on a WWII war ship ON Veterans day! The ship was fascinating. The tour guide was actually on a LST in Vietnam and knew that type of ship inside and out! Tours were $10. It's all volunteers well worth the money. On the river so bring a jacket in fall!

This is a beautiful park with several well marked hikes. Most hikes start from Wabler Road which is gated off and at the welcome center parking lot. We hiked around a small lake. There were also paddleboats and canoes for rent on another lake in the park.

Bosse Field

Reviewed By Joseph F - Evansville, Indiana

If you are traveling to Evansville, Indiana, you need to take a short drive over to Bosse Field. If you've see the movie A League of Their Own, you have already caught a glimpse of the park as the movie was filmed here. And if you love baseball then you need to time your visit to catch a minor league game when the Evansville Otters are playing at home. Bosse has been an Evansville treasure for 102 years.

Historic Newburgh Incorporated Visitor Center

Reviewed By staycationer - Clearwater, Florida

This place is beautiful and worth return visits. It is an art gallery and also houses a gift shop which is pretty cool. The city it self is beautiful and has a lot to offer visitors and residents of Newburgh and the surrounding area. It's nice to see how the art connects to the city and the history it represents.
