Ox Bow Park
Goshen, Indiana
Canoe
Located on the banks of the Elkhart River, Ox Bow Park is a reflection of Elkhart County’s natural beauty. Here you can discover the diversity of our natural environment and experience the renewal of spirit which nature provides. Ox Bow Park was established in 1969.
The park was originally developed with matching funds by the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation through the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Prior to that date, what is now Ox Bow Park, was a self supporting 113 acre farm for the Elkhart County Home. Residents of the County Home helped work the farm in return for room, board and medical care.
