A scenic southern Indiana river flowing through forested hills and farmland. The Muscatatuck offers gentle paddling past limestone bluffs and through the Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge — one of the oldest refuges in the Midwest. The 15-mile Vernon-to-North-Vernon reach holds the best limestone bluff scenery before the river widens toward its confluence with the White River.
