Join Rita for a scenic 5 mile hike in the Southern Kettle Moraine State Forest. The hike will begin at 10:00 am at the Southern Kettle Moraine Visitor Center & Forest Headquarters on Hwy 59 west of Eagle. We’ll hike south to a backpack shelter, and then onto a nature trail to the Stute Springs and Homestead. From there we’ll continue on the nature trail to the Big Hill, then back to the headquarters. Hiking poles are suggested due to several steep hills with some loose gravel.

To get to the Visitor Center & Forest Headquarters, take I-94 west to the Hwy 67 (Oconomowoc) exit, go south on Hwy 67 about 13 miles to the town of Eagle, then turn right on Hwy 59 and go about 3 miles to the Forest Headquarters entrance.  Call Rita at 262-547-4827 if you have any questions or to let her know you are coming.
