Nature preserve with a boardwalk trail to the lake
Shoreline hiking loop through oak woods and prairie
Winnebago Trail Conservancy is a nature preserve in Green Lake protecting over seven acres of southern oak forest and remnant prairie. Our 0.9-mile hiking loop traces a former Native American footpath along the elevated north shore of Big Green Lake, featuring moderate slopes, switchbacks, steps, and Leopold resting benches facing Sugarloaf and Norwegian Bay. The trail passes beneath an historic stone and concrete arch along Hillside Road near the Lawson water tower.
