Montgomery County is replete with many rewarding sites and tourist stops. Visitors can choose from four historic museums: Lane Place Antebellum Mansion, Ben-Hur Museum, Old Jail Museum and the Linden Depot Museum. Hikers can explore Shades State Park or Pine Hills Nature Preserve or walk the self-guided tour at the Elston Grove Historic District. The Sugar Creek Canoe Race is held in April and draws noted Olympic racers and has heats for local and novice competitors. Crawfordsville’s Strawberry Festival held the second weekend in June on the landscaped grounds of the Historic Lane Place and throughout the downtown area draws 35,000 people annually, more than double the town’s entire population.
