Newport State Park

The “big” hike on our first full day in Door County was at Newport State Park. We decided to hike out to Europe Bay Woods State Natural Area via the Europe Bay and Lynd Point trails. We returned on the Hotz and other portions (mostly) of the Europe Bay trail. We got some great scenery with Lake Michigan proper to our right for the first “half” of the hike and some inland wetlands for a portion of the second “half” of the hike. This was a fun hike.
