Dept: Parks: Calumet County Park:



On this page:

Calumet County Park is located northwest of the Village of Stockbridge, Wisconsin, on County Highway EE on the east shore of Lake Winnebago. This 200-acre park has much to offer. Indian Effigy Mounds, a Post-Civil War brickyard, and the Niagara Escarpment, combined with forest and lake create a beautiful park.

The primary geological feature Calumet County Park is known as the Niagara Escarpment. Beginning in New York State, the escarpment runs west from Niagara Falls and disappears under Lake Erie. It reappears in Door County and runs south through Illinois to Iowa.

Calumet County Park has camping available primarily from April 1 through Nov 1. Winter activities at the park consist of sledding, snow tubing, ice fishing access to Lake Winnnebago and cross-country ski trails. In the late spring we open the bike trails. The park also provides hiking trials that go throughout the park.

Calumet County Park Harbor is a very popular
boat launch facility on Lake Winnebago.  The harbor also functions as a safe habor of refuge during boating season and is a public access to Lake Winnebago during winter.

Calumet County Parks Department has the Parks Activity Line (920) 849-1494.  The Parks Activities Line has information about the park activities available 24 hours a day.  You can obtain information on the camping, boating, bike trails, tube hill and snowmobile trails.


The Calumet County Parks Department office is located in Calumet County Park. The office is open year round.  From Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend the office is open daily from 9 AM to 9 PM.  Call the Parks Department at 920.439.1008, to get this week's office schedule.   



Calumet County Park Non-Motorized Bike Trails

The mountain bike trails in Calumet County Park normally open late spring/early summer-due to the Niagara Escarpment's springs, our non-motorized bike trails are usually open later in the mountain biking season. Bikers are always anxious to get on the trails but please call the Parks Activity Line for updates on the trails. (920) 849-1494.

The bike trails are very popular with the mountain bike racers and the every day biker that just enjoys nature and the challenge the bike trails have to offer. Our 5 miles of trails wind throughout the park, offering single-track segments through the woods and many scenic views along the trails

You can stop by the office and get a
map of the bike trials.

Calumet County Park Winter Activities

 

The Calumet County Park Snow Tube Hill is our biggest winter attraction. You can enjoy the exhilarating ride down our hill after a relaxing peaceful ride up the hill on our tow.

You can rent a tube (limited number of tubes available) at the park or bring your own (subject to approval). The cost of a tube rental is $2.00 per person per day + a deposit. The tow ticket is $3.00 per person per day.  A deposit can be one of the following items  $20, drivers license, or credit card.  Deposit will be returned to you upon return of rental tubes. 

The hill is open on weekends from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM during periods of sustainable snow. We will also be open daily between Christmas and New Years when we have sustainable snow.  We do close when the wind chill reaches -20 degrees. We also provide one hill for use of your own sleds, snowboards and other devices (no tow on that hill).

There are refreshments available at Coffee Tree Lodge on days that the tube hill is open.

It is always a good idea to call the Calumet County Parks Department Office at  920.439.1008 after 10 am to confirm the snow tube hill is open.   You can also call the 24 hour Parks Activity Line at 920.849.1494  to obtain the latest information. Conditions change rapidly so a call ahead may be worth your while.
