Bubolz Nature Preserve
This 758-acre nature preserve has eight
miles of wildlife viewing trails that
access fields and a large wetland area,
all of which was once a cedar swamp.The earth sheltered
nature center offers guided tours, workshops,
classes and programs hosted by staff
naturalists. Watch for Bobolinks and Meadowlarks as you
hike the grassy fields in the summer. In the fall,
look for low-flying Northern Harriers hunting
for small mammals. An evening
walk through the preserve may produce
white-tailed deer or a red fox.
Directions: From Appleton go north
