The Area

Wildcat Mountain State Park - contains 3,400 acres of nature's beauty at its best.  There are many hiking trails and a fabulous outlook point.  A large variety of wild animals, birds and wild flowers can be spotted since a large area of the park is a wildlife refuge. There are also twelve miles of horseback riding trails, accessed through rentals or you can bring your own!

Kickapoo River - is located in the historic town of Ontario. Canoes can be rented from near by Titanic Canoe Rentals to traverse the Kickapoo River which gently wanders for 120 miles.  Shuttle service and maps are provided so that you can choose where you would like to launch and exit along the way.  "Kickapoo" means  crooked river.  It winds through continuous rock formations, Wildcat Mountain State Park, and even an occasional dairy farm!  An vast amount of wildlife will be seen along the banks of the river.  Pack a picnic and pull-out onto a sandy beach and enjoy the calming beauty and solitude.

Elroy Sparta State Bike Trail - is an especially appealing trail with three rock tunnels, no more than a 3% grade, 32 miles long, and great views of the countryside.  The trail provides direct access to the "400" Bike Trail and the Omaha Bike Trail.  Bike rentals are available locally.
