Some of Wisconsin’s most amazing places are hiding in plain sight. On the north side of Green Bay, there’s a waterfall that’s just off of Highway 57. Thousands of tourists pass the falls every week on their way to the natural wonders of Door County, without knowing what’s just off of the road. Wequiock Falls is a waterfall tucked into a county park that’s as beautiful as it is easy to reach. Here’s why you should make plans to visit Wequiock Falls.

Wequiock Falls is located just 10 miles from downtown Green Bay. It’s one of the smaller parks that Brown County maintains, but it’s one of the most beautiful.
