Oak Road Nature Preserve

Enjoy discovering the wonders of nature found here! This is one of 14 featured Door County Land Trust nature preserves that showcase the scenic beauty and natural diversity that make Door County so special. Nature preserves are open to the public at no charge for hiking, skiing, photography, nature study and other low-impact, non-motorized activities.   

Trail on the west side of Oak Road showcases a forest restoration project which began in 2006. The southern-most loop passes through a hardwood forest. The trail on the east side of Oak Road features a prairie planting that blooms in mid to-late summer and the trail leads to a scenic overlook of the extensive seasonal wetland that fills with water each spring and becomes an annual stopping point for migrating waterfowl and breeding amphibians.
