Hike Through A Jack-O-Lantern Lit Enchanted Forest At Wehr Nature Center In Wisconsin
An enchanted forest sounds pretty amazing. But when that forest is set aglow by dozens of jack-o-lanterns, it takes things to a whole new, magical level. This concept may sound too good to be true, but it’s exactly what you’ll find at Wehr Nature Center’s annual celebration, Halloween Haunts. The spook-tacular event is quickly approaching, and you don’t want to miss it. Read on for all the details.
Located in Franklin, Wehr Nature Center offers year round fun. However, October is an especially good time to visit since it’s when the nature center hosts Halloween Haunts.
Designed especially for families with children ages 4 – 10, the enchanted forest is just spooky enough to keep the kids enthralled, but is not designed to give anyone a nightmare.
The enchanted forest isn't the only thing Halloween Haunts has to offer, though. Visitors are treated to cider and popcorn and can enjoy crafts, face painting, fortune telling, and a magic show.
Keep in mind, tickets for Halloween Haunts must be purchased in advance. Tickets, which go on sale September 23, 2019, are $10 per person and $7 for Milwaukee County residents. Lastly: parking is free. For more information, call (414) 425-8550. You can also visit the Wehr Nature Center website or Facebook page.
Address: 9701 W College Avenue, Franklin, WI, 53132
