Need to Know

The Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center will have bathrooms, but their daytime hours are limited.

Runner Notes

Trail runners could avoid the boardwalk by running on a parallel berm.

Description

Starting at the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center, run on a quarter-mile boardwalk, then finish the clockwise circumference on a berm, a few feet above the marsh. The Horicon marsh has been declared a Ramsar site, a wetland designated to be of international importance under the Ramsar Convention.

Flora & Fauna

Bring your binoculars to check out a wide variety of birds, especially in the springtime. The marsh is a world-class nesting and resting area for waterfowl and migratory birds.
