Extra Fun Info: The Kettle Moraine and Lapham Peak were formed 10,000 years Locationago when a glacier covered much of Wisconsin. Lapham Peak's glaciated topography provides excellent hiking, backpacking and cross-country skiing on lighted trails.
There are several miles of hiking trails within the forest. One of the highlights of the forest is the observation tower which offers panoramic views of the surrounding area. Climb the 45-foot observation tower atop the highest point in Waukesha County (1,233 feet above sea level). Hiking is not allowed on the cross-country ski trails when they are snow-covered. Pets must be on a leash 8 feet or shorter at all times. Abundant bird life and wildlife can be observed from all trails and guided bird hikes are held each spring. There are several prairie restoration sites and a butterfly garden.
