Sandhill State Wildlife Area — Attraction in Town of Remington

My daughter was picked for the learn to hunt class this year, and she had a blast. We had great interactions with all of the staff during the class and after her hunt when registering her buck. We plan on hiking the whole area between now and spring. Lots of Wisconsin wildlife to see. It's not a petting zoo, so the best way to see wildlife is to get out of your car, put your phone down, and head into the woods or at very least walk the trails they have. We went deep in the marsh by a few islands.

Buffalo number about 15-20 and are on 260 acres that is fenced in. Natural flowers, ferns and many...

I loved this place! This has a wonderful mixture of driving and walking through different types of habitats that are found here in Wisconsin. So many different types of wildlife can be seen here. The driving trail was really nice, quiet, peaceful. With wonderful views. Drive slowly with the windows down, maybe pull off and have a picnic. It's great. There are also places to stop, park the car, and do some hiking on some beautifully maintained trails. A few tall lookout towers make it even easier to view the beautiful area. Drives, hikes, wooded areas, marshes, loads of different species of wildlife. Beautiful views. Peaceful drive, with peaceful,...
