Newport History Hike: Ghost Towns and Rewilding

July 2 @ 10:00 am 11:00 am

The pristine beaches and towering forests of Wisconsin’s only formally designated wilderness park looked very different just a hundred years ago. Join park naturalists on a tour of the site of a once-bustling logging town and discover what brought indigenous peoples and European settlers to Newport.

Meet at the picnic area, Lot 3.


All programs are free, but a state park admission sticker is required on all vehicles.
Some programs are weather related, so check with the park if you have any questions.

Newport State Park, 475 County Road NP, Ellison Bay, WI 54210 Ph. 920-854-2500
