Discover a jewel in the
northern landscape!

The North Lakeland Discovery Center is a community-based environmental learning center that promotes stewardship of the region’s natural and cultural resources. The Center is located on a 63-acre site in the heart of northern Wisconsin's tranquil Lakeland destination region.

Core values include a belief that the acquisition of knowledge and skills is a life-long undertaking. Through various means including recreation, discussion, display, and field study, The Discovery Center offers a diversity of experiential learning opportunities. Programs are based on the premise that the better we understand our natural environment, the more likely we are to accept our shared responsibility to look after it.
