Hike:
Join us as we hike some of the Eagle Segment’s northern portion of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. This part of the segment includes the Brady’s Rocks white-loop trail. The Brady’s Rocks area is home to several rare species of ferns and snails, and visitors should stay on the trail to avoid damaging the fragile ecosystem.
Details:
This hike starts at the the Brady’s Rocks Ice Age Trail trailhead east of the Eagle Segment and is approximately 3.25 miles long. We will then head south on IAT to the prairie, turn around, and hike a loop return on DNR access road to the IAT up the hill and back to the parking lot. This portion of the trail is mild and easy walking. Bring water and remember to dress appropriately for the weather. Dogs are welcome, but must be leashed and cleaned up after. Please bring water for your dogs as well.
Location:
The Brady’s Rocks Ice Age Trail trailhead parking lot is located off of Hwy 67 north of Eagle, WI. Look for the IAT event sign as you approach this hike event.
