Parks & Wildlife Areas

Winnebago County Conservation Board manages more than 3,500 acres of parks, wildlife areas, and recreation areas throughout Winnebago County.

Before visiting our areas, please keep the following in mind:

  • Please report any fish and wildlife violations you observe to the Turn in Poachers (TIP) Program by calling 1-800-532-2020. You can provide as much information as possible while remaining anonymous. A conservation officer will be dispatched to investigate.
  • Non-lead ammunition is required when hunting on WCCB areas, except when hunting deer or turkeys. We've had Trumpeter Swans die from lead shot poisoning, so the problem is real. For more information about hunting with non-lead ammo, check out huntingwithnonlead.org. Please consider using non-lead fishing tackle, as well, for the same reason. For more information about non-lead tackle, check out the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's website.
  • Fireworks are not allowed in any area managed by the Winnebago County Conservation Board. Thank you for respecting our parks, the wildlife that live there, and our park users.
