Door County Hiking Opportunities

"Door County hiking trails abound in the five Wisconsin state parks as well as in many of the smaller county parks. There are multiple hiking trails and loops of trails to choose from in Peninsula State Park as well as Potawatomi State Park. The 11 miles of Door County hiking trails at Whitefish Dunes State Park include a self-guided tour past replicas of the structures used by Native Americans in the Door County area. Newport State Park, a semi-wilderness area, features 28 miles of trails and is a favorite of backpacking campers and day hikers.

Summer is the most popular time for hiking in Door County, but brilliant foliage and cooler temperatures make fall a close second. Spring and winter offer a serenity that can't be found at other times in Door County.

Nature lovers will enjoy the unspoiled beauty and rare plants at Toft's Point and the Ridges Sanctuary, both located near our Baileys Harbor hotel, the Beachfront Inn.

A trip by ferry or boat to Rock Island will link Door County hikers to more than six miles of hiking trails, covering terrain that ranges from sandy beaches to rocky shores to towering bluffs. Pack a lunch and picnic at the Door County lighthouse located on the island."
