Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Peninsula State Park adventure.
See panoramic vistas of Green Bay (the body of water, not the city) at this popular park.
Hike to Eagle Bluff to see the historic lighthouse that oversees this part of Green Bay. Bring your binoculars and camera for the most beautiful view in this entire Wisconsin state park. The lighthouse, built in 1868, is pretty cool, too.
Launch your boat and head to Horseshoe Island out in the bay. There, you'll see foundations of buildings from the 1890s. A hiking trail takes you all around the island. The only way to get here is by private boat.
Bike through 5.1 miles of woods thanks to Sunset Bike Trail. The trail is paved and has gravel, which makes it easy to follow. Dangle your feet in the bay after your ride to cool off. Find a secluded spot along the 8 miles of shoreline.
Practice your golf game at the 18-hole golf course. Many golfers consider this course to be the most scenic in Wisconsin. Watch out for the pesky 8th hole. It's just 69 yards, but you have to fire a shot over a bluff and onto the green.
Five campgrounds contain 468 sites. Reserve yours early!
The best time to visit Peninsula State Park is from May to October when the weather is warm and all park facilities are open. Winter offers a quiet, snowy retreat, but some amenities may be closed, and the cold can be challenging.
