WHAT IS HUNT HILL?
Hunt Hill Audubon Sanctuary is a nature preserve and learning center, open to all, dedicated to fostering an
understanding, appreciation and protection for the environment. We are located in Sarona, between Rice Lake and
Spooner just west of Long Lake.
Hunt Hill protects nearly 600 acres of diverse habitat. Visitors can experience glacial lakes, meadow, new growth and old growth
forest as well as two tamarack bogs all within a short walk of the main camp. In addition, miles of trails are free of charge and
open to the public to hike and explore.
Hunt Hill has a full calendar of year-round events, including Prairie Fling festival in the spring, youth camps in the summer, and
