Schlitz Audubon Nature Center is . . .
. . . a unique urban area of green just 15 minutes north of downtown Milwaukee.
The Schlitz Audubon Nature Center (SANC) is a 185-acre stretch of untouched land along the shore of Lake Michigan. Escape from the world of concrete to hike six miles of trails, walk along the beach, and enjoy the spectacular view from their 60-foot observation tower.
Attend programs and workshops, see nature exhibits, meet their resident raptors (eagles, owls, and more!), or go hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, or geocaching. Remember to bring your binoculars because you never know when you'll come across SANC's resident wildlife!
SANC teaches environmental education to over 35,000 children per year and has one of the only nature preschools in the country. Schlitz Audubon also has a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) award green building with beautiful indoor and outdoor locations for green weddings, green meetings & retreats, and other special occasions.
