Lighthouse Country Regional Park Adventures

Lighthouse Country Regional Park is located along the Lake Michigan shore in eastern Wisconsin, encompassing a stretch of coastal dunes, wetlands, and wooded areas. The park provides outstanding views of the lake and access to several historic lighthouses including the renowned Cana Island Lighthouse and Eagle Bluff Lighthouse, which are important cultural landmarks of the region. Its geography is characterized by sandy beaches, rugged bluffs, and inland forests that create a diverse ecological environment hosting migratory birds, native flora, and various small mammals. Visitors can explore over ten miles of hiking and biking trails maintained to highlight both the natural setting and historic features. The park supports year-round recreation such as birdwatching during spring migration, beachcombing in summer, and snowshoeing in winter. Interpretive programs and guided tours often focus on the maritime history of the Great Lakes region and conservation efforts. Its combination of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and accessible trails makes it a popular destination for families, nature enthusiasts, and photographers. The park’s management works in collaboration with local historical societies and wildlife organizations to balance recreation with resource preservation.
