Two hundred six pre-European contact mounds are preserved here - of which 31 are effigies in the shape of bears and birds. Natural features in the monument include forests, tallgrass prairies, wetlands and rivers. As a sacred site to the modern descendants of the moundbuilders, park access is offered via fourteen miles of hiking trails. Leashed pets are permitted in the park, but are not allowed in the buildings. Leashes must be no longer than six feet. Please respect these sacred grounds and clean up after your pet immediately.
