Whitefish Dunes Park has more than a mile of sandy beaches, the highest sand dunes in Wisconsin, and 14 miles of trails for hiking, biking, and skiing. The 6,600-foot beach at Whitefish Dunes is considered by many to be the best in Wisconsin featuring a rugged Lake Michigan shoreline and 93-foot protected sand dunes, highest in the state. This Door County park is a combination of beautiful Lake Michigan shoreline, an inland lake, winding creek within surrounding wetlands, and dense upland forest comprised of maple, beech and hemlock. So rich and diverse is the plant life, the area has been designated a state natural area. In winter, it showcases beautiful ice formations with frigid Lake Michigan waves in the background. And don’t miss Cave Point County Park, At Cave Point stand on the Rocky Bluff and watch Lake Michigan carve sea caves beneath your feet.
