The Brownsburg lights loop — 4 stops
We ordered every display in Brownsburg into the shortest sensible driving loop: roughly 2.4 miles and 22 minutes of driving, before you count time spent parked and looking. Start wherever is closest to you and follow it round.
Driving estimate assumes a 25 mph average on residential streets plus four minutes stopped per display. Straight-line distances with a road-network allowance — treat it as a planning figure, not a satnav route.
