- Leopard Springs Nature Park
The Park began as a water catchment area meant to serve the city of Bloomington as from 1914. However, the city got hold of various more resources from which they could get their water from, and the Leopard Springs area was no longer a part of their plans. The park first passed hands to the Bloomington Utilities Service Board, which in turn, the Bloomington Parks and Recreation ended up acquiring the property in 1998. The nature preserve was opened in the following year and includes a number of hiking and biking trails. The park can be found at 4600 S Whooping Crane Lane, Bloomington, IN 47403, United States.
