The Mission of Mosquito Hill Nature Center is to provide environmental education and recreation that foster understanding, appreciation, and sound stewardship of the natural world for people of all ages.

The Mosquito Hill Nature Center is open year round with both indoor and outdoor opportunities on 430 acres adjacent to the Wolf River. Inside are natural history displays, an art gallery, exhibit areas, an auditorium, classrooms, and a library. Outside is a butterfly house which is open July through August and an observatory that's used during scheduled events.

Trail Maps: For hiking or walking, there are three miles of developed trails that include a loop to scenic vistas on one of the highest elevation points in the area. When the snow season arrives, one un-groomed cross-country skiing trail and five miles of snowshoe trails can provide winter enjoyment.

Find many things to do on the events calendar or the Thrivent Art Gallery schedule. There are also various school programs available for any grade level.

The location of the facility is just east of New London, Wisconsin in Outagamie County

Our fall hikes provide a great opportunity to catch a final glimpse of some summer residents before they take off for the season. Bring your binoculars or borrow a pair of ours. Nature center staff leads these hikes and will help you bone up on identification of those confusing fall warblers.

Cost: There is no charge to participate but donations are always appreciated.

Monarch Tagging for Beginners

 Every fall, hundreds of thousands of tags are placed on migrating monarchs to help scientists answer many questions about their migration pattern.

Each participant will have the opportunity to assist with capturing, tagging, testing and releasing monarchs from Butterfly House.

Cost: $5/person or $8/family (Registration fee helps to offset the cost of the monarch tags)
