With quarantine in full effect and students going stir-crazy at home, I think everyone could use an opportunity to get outside and appreciate nature on Earth Day! This year, Earth Day falls on Wednesday, April 22nd, and I highly recommend going out and exploring new areas- or enjoying some comforting favorites. 

1. Picnic Point
2. Ice Age Trail
3. Governor’s Island
4. The Arboretum
5. Tenney Park
6. Vilas Park
7. Lakeshore Nature Reserve
8. Olin Park
9. Owens Conservation Park
10. Quarry Ridge Park
11. Cherokee Ridge- North Unit
12. Merrill Springs Park
13. Stewart Lake County Park
14. Pewits Nest/Devil’s Lake
