The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) invites the public to celebrate Earth Day, Saturday, April 22, at Devil’s Lake State Park.

About the Event

“We’re excited to celebrate Earth Day with our park visitors and welcome back our spring season campers,” said Jim Carter, DNR Park Superintendent for Devil’s Lake State Park. “Devil’s Lake is a special place where many people come back to create lasting memories with their families year after year. Start a new tradition of investing in our planet.”

Visitors can participate in an Earth Day torch-lit hike at Devil's Lake North Shore.

Park staff will light a 2-mile path from the North Shore parking area up and through the Northern Lights Campground. Bring family, friends, or a leashed canine friend, or come alone, to enjoy a festive night hike along a torch-lit path.

Meet outside the Rock Elm shelter on the park's north shore before and after your hike. Warm up by the campfire, make a s'more, and enjoy a campfire sing along with FRIENDS favorite "Campfire Kevin".

This event is free, but a valid admission sticker is required for your vehicle. Purchase your sticker at the Visitor's Center in advance from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. daily or on the day of, at the self serve kiosk.

Stay tuned for further details as planning is still underway.
