Water Sports Surrounded by over 40 square miles of lakes and hundreds of miles of rivers and streams of every depth and size, Princeton is nestled on the banks of the mighty Fox River between Lake Puckaway and Green Lake. The area is a water lover’s paradise with abundant opportunities to enjoy the sport of your choice. Boating Canoeing and kayaking becomes a kiss with nature when sliding along the Fox, Mecan, Grand, Rock and White Rivers. Enjoy the richness of nature and its tranquil beauty as wildlife graze along the tree-lined river’s edge. View beautiful scenery as you cruise along cottage-dotted shorelines, or drop anchor in the middle of Lake Puckaway or Green Lake to take a break with an onboard picnic lunch and refreshing dip. Unfurl sails and catch the wind for miles of sparkling blue water. Pull your star skier or jump on the wave runner to zip through the sparkling surf…your water fun is what you make it. Fishing Whether wetting a line off a bridge, from a boat shoreline, or cutting a hole in the ice, fishing is great. The Fox River, Green Lake and Lake Puckaway are managed for quality fishing, and favorites include small and large mouth bass, bluegill, perch, white bass, northern, walleye, cisco, musky, trout and catfish. Boat Launches & Locks Launch your boat into the Fox River at Hiestand Park in Princeton, just off Hwy. 23/73 on Mechanic Street, at the Princeton Locks on the Lock Road about 1 mile west on Hwy 23, or 3 miles east of Princeton on county Rd. T. Wildlife Engage in an abundance of nature and (if you’re in the right place at the right time) get a close encounter of the “wildlife kind” that is uniquely enjoyed in Princeton and the surrounding area. Water level, temperature, current, and the way the rocks grace the river’s edge make the shores of the Fox River behind the shopping district of downtown Princeton a very unique habitat. For a few days in early spring the ancient species of Sturgeon roll on the rocks along the Fox River shoreline spawning only inches from your feet. Be careful not to touch them, though - they are protected. In the 1940s the Whooping Crane was reduced to just 15 birds. Operation Migration, along with the Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership has played a lead role in the reintroduction of endangered Whooping Cranes into eastern North America since 2001 and they have now made their home in the White River Marsh just outside of Princeton. Using ultra-light aircraft, Operation Migration pilots act as surrogate parents guiding captive-hatched and imprinted Whooping Cranes along a planned migration route beginning in the White River Marsh and ending in Florida. Through these heroic efforts the Whooping Crane population has grown to about 600 worldwide. Onlookers can get an up-front and personal view of the babies going through their flying lessons by making reservations with photographer and trainer/caretaker Doug Pellerin at pelican0711@ gmail.com, or by parking their car along County Road D and Mile Rd., about 4 miles north of Princeton just after sunrise, to watch the class of 2015 learn to migrate with their ultra-light Yellow Mama. For more information about how you can get involved or about the Whooping Crane Festival on September 11-13, contact the Princeton Chamber at [email protected]. Birding and wildlife exploration abound in the Grand River Marsh State Wildlife Area to the south, the White River Marsh State Wildlife Area to the north of Princeton, the Puchyan Wetlands north of Hwy. 23 on Cty CC and the Snake Creek Wetlands between Princeton and Green Lake off St. Marie Road. Swimming Enjoy a cool dip and a picnic at 3 public swimming areas surrounding Green Lake or 1 public area on Puckaway. Various parks have a variety of playground equipment, picnic tables, shade trees and washrooms for your convenience. Pedal Princeton BackRoads Just park your car in the downtown parking lot and head out to explore the backroads on 8 planned tours offering backroad biking experiences for all types of riders. Take along a detailed map available throughout town. Green Lake Conference Center It’s always inspirational to include some of the most beautiful scenery in Wisconsin when you bike, hike or cross country ski through the Green Lake Conference Center’s Dawson Prairie Trail, on the corner of Cty. Rd. T and Hwy. 23 east of Princeton. Black Bridge Nature Trail Incorporate the historic Black Bridge Nature Trail (running from North Farmer St. to River Rd.) as you stroll through Princeton city streets. Treat yourself to the seclusion of the old railroad bed rising above lowland habitats and the beautifully preserved Northwestern Railway Bridge as your view opens to the breathtaking scenery of the Fox River that it spans over. Greenways Take in the scenic beauty of Green Lake County’s Mascoutin Valley Trail stretching 12 miles along the old Milwaukee train track bed stretching between Berlin and Ripon. Snake Creek Wetlands Trail View nature in all its richness as you walk an abandoned railroad in the Izaak Walton Leaque of America’s Snake Creek Wetlands. Access the trail on Saint Marie Rd. or Swamp Rd. between Princeton and Green Lake on Cty. Rd. J. Enjoy the trail year-round. Public Parks Princeton offers a diversity of public parks - Princeton City Park, home of the Famous Princeton Flea Market; Beautiful Megow Park located on Water Street with the Fox River flowing behind it; Heistand Park on the Fox River banks; Old Mill Park, with picnic tables and fun for kids and the Lions Park with tennis courts and ice skating pond. Winter Outdoor Fun When fields are bare, lakes freeze over and everything is covered in a frosty white blanket, it’s time to play the hardy way. Miles of manicured snowmobile trails take you for short hops or day-long excursions from county to county. When you plan your route, don’t forget to take a break at your favorite rest stops to warm up and catch a bite to eat. Make it a weekend or a great afternoon break enjoying the silence of the winter woods when cross country skiing. Beautifully maintained trails for all levels of skiers abound in the Princeton area. The lakes turn into small (or maybe not so small) villages when water turns to ice. Whether sitting on a bucket and jigging in a hole cut in the ice or sitting in a warm fishing shack, playing cards and watching tip-ups, winter fishing is great. Test your fishing talent (and luck) at many of the fisherees held on Puckaway, Green Lake and Little Green. Golf Princeton sits smack dab in the center of 6 of the finest golf courses in Wisconsin. From nearly treeless rolling hills of the “Scottish-style” links to fairways beautifully bordered with mature and dense oaks and pines, the area is a golfer’s paradise. Antiques Princeton is also known for some of the finest antiquing in the state. It’s easy to spend a full day surrounding yourself with nostalgia as you peruse the many malls and shops bursting with exquisite artifacts from days gone by. Flea Market Join the fun all season long. A destination in itself, Princeton’s Flea Market is the largest outdoor weekly flea market in Central Wisconsin. Enjoy a Saturday stroll in Princeton’s City Park on Hwy. 23 to browse through 100’s of vendors goodies. The treasures abound every week as new and different vendors enter the mix, so make it your weekly stop to find that long sought after item, or just to get a tasty snack at the food stand and chat with friends. “I can’t believe the variety of different things I can find at the Princeton Flea Market!

Delight in the atmosphere as you stroll through shops restored to their 1800’s origins, log-built from native pines or repurposed in their own unique style. 10 FARM TO FORK FARMERS MARKET Quality and freshness can’t get better than when it comes right from the growers around Princeton.
