Yes. There's a few small spaces close to the Visitor Center, but other larger parking areas a little further away from the V.C., near Monk's Mound, and a turn-out near Woodhenge.

Can you drive around to see the mounds? Can you park at various spots and walk (if so about how far of a walk)? Going in the summer and trying to plan in case it's too hot to do much walking!

Agree with other commenters. I wasn't able to go inside the museum as I arrived after they were closed. One set of mounds is on south (I think) side of road by museum. Larger/taller mound is on other side of road & has its own parking area. Yes, about 100 yards from parking lot to bottom of stairs. I'm not in great shape but made it to the top--which by the way was worth the effort in terms of view. Just took my time.... Carry water with you!
