Enjoy Nature at
Blue Mound State Park

Southern Wisconsin's Blue Mound State Park is a great place for observing nature, both close up and at a distance from the two observation towers. Learn about and experience the birds and other wildlife, trees, wildflowers, and geological formations.

The amphitheater provides an excellent setting for evening naturalist programs. A naturalist program is presented throughout the summer so visitors can learn more about the park, the plants, animals, human history, and the natural environment.

Guided hikes and evening programs are presented most Fridays and Saturdays, Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. Notices of the nature programs are posted on bulletin boards and kiosks throughout the park and on the World Wide Web.
