Free Weekend at Wisconsin State Parks

June 7th and 8th is a great time to get outdoors visit Wisconsin's State Parks, Forests and Trails.  Why? It's Free!

MADISON - Admission to Wisconsin's more than 100 state parks, forests and trails is free on June 7-8 and special events are planned at many of them to showcase their scenery, recreation and history.

"This is an invitation to folks who haven't been to state parks and forests in recent years to see what they're all about," says Department of Natural Resources Parks Director Dan Schuller. "Free Fun Weekend is also a great opportunity to try the dozens of trails that normally require a trail pass."
