Nestled within the vast and beautiful surroundings of the Northern Kettle Moraine State Forest, Mauthe Lake presents lovely opportunities for hiking, birding and nature interpretation. Mauthe Lake boasts two miles of trail and resides at the confluence of the Green Bay and Lake Michigan lobes of the last glaciation. On this excursion, we’ll look for early spring migrants, gain a deeper understanding of local geologic history and enjoy fresh spring air while hiking in this lowland region.
March is a transitional time in the forest community, and we will identify some of the first plants and animals to welcome the return of spring. Expect to hike two – three miles over undulating and occasionally rocky terrain. Director of Learning Tom Finley will be your guide for the hike, who has visited the region for many years.
A DNR state park sticker is required. Further details will be emailed to participants the week prior to the trip. There are rest facilities and picnic tables at this location.
