Parks<br />
No matter what the season, the<br />
<strong>Stevens</strong> <strong>Point</strong> <strong>Area</strong>’s beautiful outdoor<br />
attractions set good times in motion.<br />
In the spring, enjoy the warm sun with<br />
a round of disc golf, or admire the new<br />
leaves as you hike on a scenic nature<br />
trail. Feel some creative energy during<br />
the annual Arts Walk, an event with<br />
musicians, dancers, and art activities.<br />
The <strong>Stevens</strong> <strong>Point</strong> <strong>Area</strong> entices outdoor enthusiasts with a classic mix of scenic trails.<br />
Here are some of the biggest hits:<br />
THE GREEN CIRCLE TRAIL is a 27-mile<br />
trail that circles the <strong>Stevens</strong> <strong>Point</strong> <strong>Area</strong>,<br />
passing the Wisconsin River, Plover<br />
River and other streams. The trailhead<br />
is located at the Schmeeckle Reserve,<br />
a beautiful 280-acre natural area that’s<br />
part of the UW-<strong>Stevens</strong> <strong>Point</strong> campus.<br />
THE TOMORROW RIVER STATE TRAIL<br />
features 24 miles of hiking, biking and<br />
horseback riding between Manawa and<br />
Plover. In the winter, it’s a snowmobile<br />
route that picks up in Plover and<br />
Amherst Junction.<br />
THE ICE AGE TRAIL is a thousand-mile<br />
footpath that crosses through Portage<br />
County, offering almost limitless adventure.<br />
STANDING ROCKS COUNTY PARK, just<br />
nine miles east of Plover, has more than<br />
13 miles of rolling trails for hiking<br />
and biking.<br />
BORN LEARNING TRAIL is an interactive<br />
walking trail at Mead Park, just steps from<br />
the popular K.A.S.H. Playground along<br />
the Wisconsin River in <strong>Stevens</strong> <strong>Point</strong>.<br />
In the summer, ride one of our<br />
renowned biking trails and on-road<br />
routes. When the leaves turn, take in<br />
the color as they reflect on the area's<br />
scenic rivers and lakes and admire the<br />
massive flocks of migratory birds that<br />
pass through. Head to Altenburg’s<br />
Farm, where you can enjoy their<br />
pumpkin patch and corn maze, or<br />
stop by Casey’s Orchard for fresh,<br />
juicy apples. In the winter, bomb down<br />
Iverson Park’s sledding hills or their<br />
toboggan run. Take a sleigh ride at<br />
Wild West Campground & Corral or<br />
explore our ski and snowshoe trails or<br />
a picturesque skating rink.<br />

of delicious award-winning beers.<br />
