Fall is a great time to visit Marshfield, whether you’re playing in a park, finding a fun, family-friendly activity, or catching a glimpse of wildlife at one of central Wisconsin’s largest zoos. Here are a few local attractions you should see this fall, whether you’re visiting from Marathon County, Wood County, or beyond.
Wildwood Park & Zoo
One of the best places to take in fall scenery in Marshfield is at Wildwood Park & Zoo, which was established in 1937 and houses an impressive collection of animals, from twin Kodiak bears to wolves to bison to cougars. The park is also home to several miles of trails that run through the woods, offering a beautiful backdrop of fall colors.
Parks & trails
Looking for other great opportunities to catch fall color? Marshfield is home to beautiful parks and trail systems that are great for hours of exploration in the fall. Head to nearby Powers Bluff County Park—a popular destination in the winter for its downhill skiing and tubing options—to find single-track mountain biking opportunities as well as a 1.5-mile nature trail.
