Discover Four Seasons of Outdoor Fun in Land O'Lakes
Winter
Land O'Lakes is a wonderland for those who enjoy winter sports like snowmobiling. With expansive trails that connect to other towns and areas, you'll never run out of places to explore or scenery to admire!
If snowmobiling isn't your thing, why not give ice fishing a try? Local bait and tackle shops like The Tackle Box can help you figure out what you need to get started!
The area is also ideal for cross-country skiers looking for a challenging yet scenic workout! Pack a sled for the kids!
Interested in downhill skiing or snowboarding? Ski Brule is only about 45 minutes away near Iron River, Michigan.
Spring
Springtime is ideal for watching native birds return home from their winter flight down south. Everything that went to sleep for the winter is starting to wake up, too. If you're close enough to a small body of water and can stand a little bit of a chilly breeze, crack your window open slightly at night so you can hear the spring peepers (1000s of tiny frogs) serenade you to sleep!
Summer
Summer is a great time to visit Land O'Lakes with your family! The weather is warm and comfortable, you may even want to go camping (Be sure to pack plenty of bug spray!)
Take a scenic hike or bike ride along one of many paved and non-paved trails. Maps and additional information available at Wilderness Lakes Trails.
Of course, fishing is a favorite past time for both tourists and locals. With dozens of beautiful lakes with public boat launches to choose from, the hardest part will be choosing your favorite spot! Don't forget your fishing license, they're available at several businesses throughout the town!
There are also many beautiful beaches in the area for swimming, water skiing, and jet skiing. Pack a picnic lunch and rent a pontoon boat with your family to launch off at Bent's Camp onto Mamie Lake for a relaxing tour of the Cisco chain of lakes, which passes through both Wisconsin and Michigan.
Fall
The fall is an exciting time for game hunting enthusiasts. Various deer hunting seasons open between September and December. Whether you enjoy using a bow or a rifle, be sure to check out the Wisconsin DNR's website for dates and license information before planning your hunting trip.
If hunting isn't your thing, it's worth it to stop by and admire the beautiful colors. The crisp, cool fall weather is ideal for taking hikes through the woods. Be sure to bring your camera!
