Event Link

Board an antique open-air train and ride into the most remote areas of the Tiffany Wildlife Area! Enjoy stops with short hikes into floodplain forests, savannas, and prairies with views of the Chippewa River while you learn about ecology, land protection, and history of the area.

Mid-May is the peak of spring migration. Birds will be brightly attired, active, and vocal throughout the day. With luck, we’ll see newly arrived resident species, as well as birds headed to Canada to raise the next generation of boreal migrants.

Children are welcome, however, the educational content will be for an adult audience. No seatbelts are provided in the antique open-air train cars.

Must be able to get on and off of train up a step. Most stops will include short walks less than a quarter mile. There is one stairway that is optional. There will be one longer bird walk that will be approximately 0.75 miles.

Cost:

  • Adults: $30
  • Kids: $10
  • $0 – Free (Choose this option if the cost would be a barrier to your participation.)
