With over 8.5 miles of trails, Bubolz Nature Preserve in Appleton, Wisconsin offers year round access to nature. The trail systems provides several trail options for hiking, walking, snowshoeing and cross country skiing. Cross Country Ski trails are groomed. View Winter Trail Map.
TRAIL UPDATE
Ski and Snowshoe rentals are currently unavailable due to the lack of snow.
During the winter months, our summer hiking trails turn into cross country ski trails. We add 2 snowshoe/hiking trails that go through parts of the preserve that aren’t accessible during the summer months.
