Mosquito Hill Nature Center

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.

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.
