Winter Wonder Woods

Celebrate winter in style with Milwaukee Recreation's Winter Wonder Woods! Join us to experience seasonal serenity in the city while creating lasting memories and new traditions.

See Hawthorn Glen in a new light as you stroll through our trails that are twinkling with holiday cheer. Over 18,000 lights will illuminate the beauty of the Glen, winding you through the woods and past displays. Winter Wonder Woods will feature a selfie station, Hiking Santa, educational facts along the trail, and more!

Cozy up by the fireplace in our assembly room and enjoy seasonal music, and warm yourself at the outdoor fire pit and with a s’mores kit! Warm drinks and cookies will also be available for purchase.
