Forest Beach Migratory Preserve - Belgium, WI

It used to be a golf course. Now, it's a little bit of paradise. Prairie trails, wooded trails, ponds with heron, ducks, geese. Lots of birding, a special raptor viewing area, views of Lake Michigan from the raptor tower. I saw my first Indigo Bunting there.  It was momentous. The building is available for rental for special occasions. The park is free to hike, and the trails are well groomed.  And it's not far from Harrington Beach, if you're feeling ambitious.

Location: 4970 Country Club Road, Belgium, WI (Ozaukee County)
