The perfect fall getaway starts in Shipshewana. Hoosiers can escape the city and head to the countryside for a weekend away.

Here are our top Shipshewana recommendations:

  • Attend one of 24+ festivals and events, including Pumpkin Races, Corn School, or the Ship-Chic Fall Craft & Vintage Show.
  • Grab a map, explore 30 giant straw bale art designs — and don’t miss the six-bale caterpillar. Pro tip: Take selfies with the bales and use #VisitShipshewana and #AutumnAdventure24 in your post to be featured on their social media.
  • Pick up an Autumn Adventure Shopping Pass, a fun-filled way to explore the area’s hidden gems while enjoying amazing special deals + discounts.
  • On top of an Amish hearty meal, don’t miss out on apple pie, cinnamon donuts, pumpkin lattes, and so much more.
  • From the Downtown Shopping District to the Blue Gate Garden Inn, enjoy more fall décor with straw people, corn stalks, and pumpkin selfie stations.

Bring your whole family to the Heart of Amish Country for some fall fun.

Autumn adventures await.
