Waupaca Now Has Four Story Walks!
Reading while hiking can be fun, and the Waupaca Area Public Library is happy to announce that we have four Story Walks to choose from. All are on Waupaca’s beautiful River Ridge Trail.
- NEW! Find a Story Walk at Waupaca’s Eco Park! Head into the park to the end of the driveway to find the start of the trail.
- For the hike near Sunny Day Child Care, park near Sunny Day on Godfrey Drive and walk down the path that leads betweeen the daycare and the clinic.
- Swan Park’s Story Walk starts to the south of the sledding hill.
- On the nature trail behind the Chain Exploration Center. Watch for signs leading the way.
Thanks to Waupaca Park & Rec Dept., Sunny Day, and the Waupaca School District for their partnership on this adventure. See attachments for maps of some Story Walks.
