That is part of the fun of traversing a natural trail-but watch your step. As the sign states, there are trip hazards pretty much all along the trail. At the southeast corner of the intersection is this stepping off point, leading down to the river bank. The trail can be assessed from several points, but perhaps the best location to start from is at the intersection of Hampton and Port Washington Roads. It’s scenic, somewhat remote (you will almost forget that you are walking through an urban area), and passes adjacent to some very interesting things, including a noisy waterfall. Fortunately, there is a nice hiking trail that extends along the bank of the river. However, in reality it is more likely that the trail actually traversed the area using the east bank of the Milwaukee river.
Maps typically show the Sauk Trail as near the roadway through Estabrook Park. Travel along the Milwaukee River using the Sauk Indian Trailĭid you know that the Sauk Indian Trail passed through what is now Estabrook Park? OK, our first suggested activity isn’t typically within Whitefish Bay, even though the Village does extend into the park a bit (more on that later). Of course, even though most of these pursuits are outdoor activities, a measure of social distancing is still in order if you encounter folks that are not within your safe ‘social circles.’ġ. Therefore, this missive offers some recreational ideas that you might not have considered-things that you can do safely in Whitefish Bay and which might prove to be fun ways to enjoy the outdoors. Walking or otherwise traveling through the same routes is getting more than a bit boring. Kids are playing among themselves in neighborhoods throughout the Village, as some of the more-managed summer sports pursuits and camps have shut down.Īs this ‘safer at home and OK outdoors’ environment continues, however, it can be helpful to find new routines.
Walkers and joggers are seen frequently in all neighborhoods. Whole families are now often observed walking through the Village and bicycling city streets. And, for those of us older than a ‘certain age,’ even when places have opened, an abundance of caution is likely to keep us from returning to normal pursuits. The pandemic lock-down has been going on for more than 3 months and while some things are opening up, life is far from normal.
