An Outdoor Adventure Guide to Calumet County

Ana and Eric welcome Discover Wisconsin producer Jessica Voukoun into The Cabin to share some details involving outdoor fun in Calumet County, which is tucked along the eastern shore of Lake Winnebago. Since the Interstates swing people well to the west or east of the county, many travelers accidentally bypass the area - but here are some great reasons to follow the roads into Calumet County - like U.S. 10, U.S. 151, or Highways 32 and 57 - and dive into all that awaits here. The focus is the outdoors, with High Cliff State Park above Lake Winnebago getting the full love for its topography, views, and trails. Calumet County Park is also on Lake Winnebago further south, offering a variety of summer and winter outdoor activities, including a tubing hill and fat tire biking on groomed trails. If you’re into boating, Calumet County has two marinas where you can drop anchor, including High Cliff and Stockbridge. Nature and wildlife centers offer plenty of opportunities to learn, exercise, and take in Mother Nature. We discuss the merits of Ledgeview Nature Center south of Chilton, the Brillion Nature Center near (you guessed it) Brillion, and the interestingly-named Killsnake Wildlife Area. Along with more lakes and trails, Eric, Ana, and Jessica discuss farms and orchards including Mulberry Lane Farm & Petting Zoo, Heritage Orchard, and Polly’s Pumpkin Patch where you can visit, learn, enjoy, and take home some of nature’s best offerings. You can also enjoy motocross and ATV riding at Gravity Park USA or Farm Country ATV Park, or kick back and enjoy a flick under the stars at the Chilton Twilight Outdoor Theater. We cap it off with a discussion about the new and amazing Ariens Nordic Center, checking in with GM Sean Becker to find out all it has to offer in all seasons. The options are many for outdoor fun in Calumet County; get all the details here! Find out even more about Calumet County and its many things to enjoy here:Instagram: @travelcalumetFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TravelCalumetYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@travelcalumet3370https://www.travelcalumet.com
