Northwest Sands Auto Trail, Inc.

Our Mission

Northwest Sands Auto Trail, Inc, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to interpreting the beauty of the Northwest Sands Ecological Landscape in Wisconsin. Our "auto trail" traverses over 200 miles, as close as possible following a route that dates back centuries, offering a unique perspective on the region's geology, ecology, history, and culture. With 57 stops along the main trail, 12 local museums nearby, and 8 defined 'spurs', our journey delves deep into the heart of this captivating landscape.

Through our carefully curated trail, we aim to unlock the stories of the past, the wonders of nature, and the essence of the local community. Join us on this transformative adventure that promises to unveil the hidden gems of the Northwest Sands like never before.
