The Museum at EAA's World Headquarters is a history, aviation buffs must see. And, the gift shop will satisfy your desire for mementos or gifts. The Experimental Aircraft Association is the best organization going for the support of private (General Aviation) pilots, and is not limited to home-built aircraft. The extensive collection of WWII bomber art is, all by itself, worth the visit!

Wiowash Trail

Reviewed By Jdbast900

We actually started on the Hortonville end, biked the entire 20-mile trail to Oshkosh and then back again. Wildlife sightings included sand hill cranes and Canadian geese, one deer. The trail is really well maintained and goes through farms and woods and over water. Surface is largely crushed stone, in some places hard-packed dirt that could turn muddy in a rain but was perfect the day we biked. A couple of nasty holes, but they’re avoidable. Very few changes in elevation, and even those few were gentle slopes. We were out on a Saturday afternoon; other bicyclists and runners and dog- and kid-walkers were out, but the traffic was not at all heavy and everyone is really pleasant. For a beautiful bike ride, you cannot go wrong with this trail.

Menominee Park

Reviewed By sassynesswithasmile - Atlanta, United States

Peaceful park with paved walking and bike paths on Lake Winnebago. There's a beach, playground, tennis, pickle ball, fishing, boating with kayak and canoe rentals. There is picnic areas with lots of green space. Menominee Park Zoo is also located in the park and has free admission (donations accepted) The 8 acre zoo is very well maintained and has llamas, goats, peacocks, badgers, wolves, otters, turkeys, opossums, an albino raccoon ( a first for me), a beautiful chatty macaw and other animals. We enjoyed our visit to the park so much we agreed it was well worth the 1.5 hour drive from Milwaukee. Take a drive thru downtown Oshkosh and see if you can spot all 20 mini murals painted outside of various buildings. (a map of the mural locations can be found online)

Every Saturday morning during the summer months you can enjoy strolling downtown Oshkosh for the Farmer's Market. There is so much for the entire family to enjoy, from the fruits and vegetables fresh from the farms, to live music, fresh pies and coffee, meats, food trucks, as well as exhibits with hands-on learning for the kids.
