  • The Horicon Marsh is a jewel in Wisconsin!! It is beautiful and well taken care of, it offers educational experiences for people of all ages, really cool geocache finds, and amazing nature trails! Definitely bring your binoculars and a camera to take pictures!! Great for all ages and levels of nature lovers!
  • If you are looking for nature that is breathtaking this is one of the most beautiful migrations you will ever. I have been coming here since I was a young teenager. New photo's from 3/14/2021. The migration is coming, scouts are out. The birds are looking rough after their travels.
