Bay Shore County Park

Situated along the bluffs of the Niagara Escarpment, this 86-acre park has beautiful views of Lake Michigan. The
mixed forest along the escarpment attracts migrating songbirds, while the shoreline attracts shorebirds and waterfowl. Park facilities include a breakwater, boat ramp and dock, picnic areas, campground and hiking trails. If you’ve brought the kids, there’s a terrific nautically themed playground complete with a huge wooden ship.

Directions: Take Hwy 57 (Sturgeon Bay Road) north of Green Bay about 15 miles to 5637 Sturgeon Bay Road. A
large sign marks the property.
