HUMMEL PARK

1500 S. Center St.

Plainfield, IN 46168

Indiana's Largest Township Park

ONE OF INDIANA'S MOST BEAUTIFUL TOWNSHIP PARKS

Hummel Park is located just minutes west of the Indianapolis International Airport in Plainfield, Indiana, near the Interstate 70 and State Road 267 Interchange. Because of its central location and the many amenities within its 205 acres, Hummel Park is the perfect gathering place for families and friends.

Our guests have told us that Hummel Park is one of the most beautifully-kept public parks anywhere, and the staff of Hummel Park works hard to maintain that image.

TRAIL MAINTENANCE ALERT

Due to weather conditions over the past couple years, the natural environment of the area west of White Lick Creek and south of Shelter #5 has changed, causing the elevation of the ground around the small lakes in that region to become higher than the trails. Excessive flooding over the past four years has brought much silt and dirt into the area and as a result, during wet weather, the fill washes onto the trails, often causing muddy situations in certain areas.

The facilities and maintenance staff at Hummel Park have been working diligently, and work every day to clear any new silt and mud from the trails. The trail system is possibly the most important aspect of the park, and it is the first priority for not only emergency maintenance when conditions arise, but also for routine maintenance.

We ask that as we continue to work to re-establish this area to a more manageable environment, that you please understand that at times, there will be mud and standing water on certain portions of the trail. We appreciate your concerns and want you to know we are taking all steps possible without causing further damage to the natural environment of the park.

White Lick Creek flows through Hummel Park, providing a scenic central focus for the park. A 300-foot wooden bridge spans the creek and joins the east side of the park – which offers a variety of sports venues, including basketball and volleyball courts, baseball and softball diamonds, and soccer and disc golf – with the west side, which features miles of nature trails, five fishing lakes and an outdoor performing arts center.

We offer shelter house and gazebo rentals, and rental of the Guilford Township Community Center for more formal indoor events. We also offer the Charleston Pavilion as an outdoor venue. For more information on these or one of our many other facilities or activities listed, please contact us.
