The Trumpeter Trail is a 14-mile auto tour that takes about two hours to complete. A shorter route is also available. Along the trail, visitors can view and appreciate how the forces of people and nature affect wildlife and their habitat in central Wisconsin. (From Wisconsin DNR) 

Since 1876, Wisconsin has been acquiring land to meet conservation and recreation needs. Public lands managed by the DNR provide many opportunities for public enjoyment—people can hunt, fish, trap, hike, canoe, or watch and photograph wildlife. All wildlife areas are managed to sustain the wildlife and natural communities found on the properties and to support traditional outdoor recreational uses.

Sandhill Wildlife Area has special hunting and trapping requirements. 

Yes and no. Trapping and other hunting is allowed on the property, so there are times when the risk is too great to allow your dog off-leash. At other times, as long as you understand the risks, can control your dog, and be ultra vigilant in your dog's immediate surroundings (they are not to chase wildlife), it is OK to allow them to be off-leash. Please be understanding that others may not be comfortable around dogs (on or off-leash).

There are pit toilets available during all seasons adjacent to the parking area.  Another set of pit toliets are available by the Marsh Tower parking lot which are open when the Trumpeter Trail is open.

Yes, there are several picnic tables available throughout the property. Please note that no potable water or garbage pick-up is provided. Pack it in - Pack it out.
