About:

Hartland became Wisconsin’s first Ice Age Trail Community in 2015, and this walking club was formed to bring people–both adults and “Wee Walkers”–together to enjoy the trail, community, and each other. Start the New Year right by getting your kids out of the house and onto the Ice Age Trail with the Hartland Walking Club’s “Wee Walkers” program–monthly hikes designed especially for tykes! They’d love to have you join them for a walk!

The Walk:

Gorgeous day for a hike coming up with our Wee Walkers one of our favorite parts of the Hartland Segment! We will start at the northeast corner of KE and Cottonwood Ave and head south on the Ice Age Trail to Foxwood Drive and back. This hike will move at a “toddler’s pace,” as they stop to explore and enjoy the surroundings along the way. Check their Facebook page for updates.

Details:

This month, their out-and-back hike will total approximately 1.8 miles. This section of trail is stroller-friendly but it’s really fun for kids with ups and downs, switchbacks, and surprises to explore. Please dress for the weather and consider bringing water and snacks. If conditions are unsafe we will cancel.

Walks are led by 5-year-old Simon, 3-year-old Ophelia, 1-year-old Rhea, and their mom, Christina, an Ice Age Trail volunteer (and kid at heart). All ages are welcome; kids must be accompanied by an adult. Well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome.

Christina Callies and the Hartland Recreation Department organized this hike. Register in advance to ensure that you receive notification in the event this hike is postponed or canceled. You can also just show up at Cottonwood Wayside, too. There is no fee for this activity.
