To find one of Wisconsin’s prettiest spots, you don’t need to drive all the way to Door County or the Northwoods – just head to Green Bay. On the city’s south side, there’s a delicate waterfall that’s just waiting to be discovered. It’s called Fonferek’s Glen, and it’s a natural wonder that you have to see in person – here’s what you need to know about this wonderful park and waterfall in Northeast Wisconsin.

Fonferek’s Glen is a Brown County park that’s located in the town of Ledgeview. It’s only about 15 minutes from Lambeau Field, but it feels a world away.

The park is just 75 acres, and it's located along Bower Creek. It’s part of the Niagara Escarpment, a massive geologic feature that also includes Niagara Falls.
