Door County is the perfect backdrop for any outdoor activity

In Door County, you’re never too far from some fun. Whether you’re an outdoor athlete, looking for a family activity, or prefer the simpler things on your relaxing vacation, Door County’s recreational activities offer everything you need for an active vacation.

For the Adventurer
Traverse the county’s hundreds of miles of trails on a bike, horse, Segway or by foot. Thousands of acres of state, county and local parks can provide your own playground. Or find a guided tour through the unique natural areas throughout the county.

Turn up the octane a bit with a zipline tour through the Door County canopy or rent a jet ski in many of the local communities. Then take to the skies with parasailing or an airplane tour.

For the Family
Keep the kids busy with 18 holes of mini golf or go karts. Reserve a few lanes at the local bowling alley or learn about local agriculture history at a public farm. If all you need is a swimsuit and a sand shovel, check out one of the county’s 53 sand or stone beaches.

For the Relaxing Vacation
If you’re not one to soak up the sun, soak in a little local history at one of the county’s many museums and historical societies. Catch the latest blockbuster in the open air at a drive-in movie theater or visit any of the local spas to really unwind. Relax with one of the free concerts in community parks or check out a host of live music options throughout the peninsula every day.
