A Geological Tour of Willow River State Park

Seating is limited. Please register for this event: https://tinyurl.com/willowgeotour

Meet at the Willow River Nature Center & lace up your hiking boots, and join the naturalist on a 4-mile hike, where you’ll learn about several geological landforms within the park, some dating back over 500 million years ago! We’ll start by gaining a background on geology and WI’s geological past, and you'll have a chance to look at some amazing fossils, rocks and minerals. Then we’ll head out on a 4-mile hike (round trip) which will include some unlevel terrain. The presentation is roughly 1-hour long and the hike will take around 1.5 hours to complete afterwards depending on the pace of the group. Please come dressed for the weather and bring along water, a snack, binoculars and a camera if you wish! Please note: you are more than welcome to come for the presentation portion of the program and opt out of the hike afterwards!

This event costs $5/person and vehicle admission into the park is required. All outdoor events are weather-dependent.
