Start the new year off right in Marshfield! We’ve got great attractions and events fit for everyone, whether you’re taking a weekend getaway with the family or looking to get active. Here are a few suggestions on what to see and where to go this year.
Meet the rare Munsey and Boda
Bring the family to Wildwood Park & Zoo, a free zoo that’s walkable or drivable and open year-round. Visit the stars of the zoo—the rare Munsey and Boda, two big Kodiak bears that love to play, especially when in the snow!
Taste something new
Marshfield has restaurants that cater to all ages. Put these on your foodie bucket list: a Best of Marshfield winning burger at Nutz Deep II, a special treat from 2-1/2 Cups Cupcakery, a reuben from Blue Heron Brewpub and a slice of pie at The Kitchen Table.
Play in the snow
When the snow flies, head to Powers Bluff Park and Winter Recreation Area in nearby Arpin, a 15-mile drive southeast of Marshfield. The main attraction is the park’s skiing and snow tubing hill, which is open Saturdays and Sundays when conditions allow. Skiers, snowboarders and tubers can purchase a half-day ($10/person) or full-day ($15/person) session. Snow tubes are included with the session fee; no outside tubes are allowed). Find more information here. Another great bet for winter fun: the snowshoe and fat bike trails in Wildwood Park.
