Schererville's corner of Indiana is dune and marsh country, and the two falls within reach are the Canyon Creek pair. Each one is a 2 mile out and back at moderate effort. The cascade adds around 200 feet of climb and allows dogs, which makes it the better pick for most people. Folks near the state line already cross into Illinois for their outdoor weekends, and this pair slots into that habit without eating a whole day.

Located at 41.4861°N, -87.4442°W
