Our Mission

Connecting people to Northwoods nature through educational experiences that inspire wonder, discovery, and responsibility.

Something for Everyone

We offer many exciting programs for children, adults and families. Hikes, crafts, games, river and forest explorations, naturalist-guided canoe and kayak trips, bird watching, engaging lectures, and live raptor programs are just a few of the educational experiences we provide to residents, visitors and vacationers in the Cable Area of Northern Wisconsin.

Check out our Calendar of Events for upcoming programs.

The Museum strives to ensure the accessibility of its building, exhibitions, events, and programs to all persons with disabilities. There is a wheelchair available for use on site at the Museum.
