About this event

Take a deeper look at the land and Wisconsin history in the beauty of nature's classroom at the Historic Indian Agency House!

Stories of the Land is a self-directed and signage-guided educational walk through a portion of our property with the goal of engaging hikers with the fascinating history that happened on the soil beneath their feet.

Our historic site is situated on beautiful Ho-Chunk ancestral land which offers valuable educational opportunities. From examining the culture and history of the Indigenous Ho-Chunk people, to discovering prominent historical figures who journeyed here, to exploring applied prairie science and more, Stories of the Land enhances our educational offerings out in nature’s classroom.

The interpretive trail begins just off of the parking lot. The interpretive signage is located along the Outer Loop trail.

Our trails are free and open to the public.

Tour groups may contact us to schedule a guided history hike led by our staff (regular admission fees apply for guided hikes).
