Most people are only lucky enough to get one vacation a year unless they are retired or independently wealthy. For that reason they generally plan those vacations very carefully, mapping exactly where they will stay, what they will see, and where they will go. Taking a Door County bike tour is no different. There are many things to think about and decide before you start off on such an adventure.
Wisconsin is an amazing state with an abundance of natural beauty from south to north. It is also a state where one needs to take into account the weather patterns inherent to its location. If you are bicycling, the summer months seem the most conducive to success. It should not be too hot or too cold during this time and most attractions will be open and accessible to visitors.
When you are making plans for your tour, your might want to think about Sturgeon Bay. The town is located centrally and could be a great starting place for you. Visitors really enjoy the great maritime museum and the historical museum as well. There are find restaurants, interesting galleries representing local and national artists and a wonderful shoreline that attracts bikers, hikers, and fishermen.
Bailey's Harbor is an invigorating bike ride just north of Egg Harbor. The famous Cana Island lighthouse is here and is open to visitors who want to climb the spiral staircase to check out the amazing views of Lake Michigan and Door Peninsula. It can be wet going however, and sometimes water boots become necessary.
While you are visiting Bailey's Harbor you should check out Kangaroo Lake. It is the largest lake in Door County and the views are incredible. If you want to explore the preserves however, you should be aware that there are no restrooms, trash cans, or water available. The area is carefully preserved and a wonderful place to photograph the extensive wildlife. You may even want to stay for the night at one of the housekeeping cottages.
Once you are on the northern end of the peninsula, Newport State Park is a must see. It is located at Ellison's Bay on the very tip of Door. Being the only park in Wisconsin that is officially wilderness designated makes this a very special visit. You can go off road cycling on any number of trails, but you need to find out in advance which ones are accessible to bikes.
Door County is famous for its cherries, and the middle of summer is the perfect time to do some picking. Many orchards are open to the public. Visitors are encouraged to pick as many cherries as they like. You will not even have to worry about buying a bucket as they are generally provided.
Touring this magnificent part on the United State is a great idea, and cycling your way around is a wonderful way to do it. It may just make you decide to come back again and again.
