On the Land
Adventure on the land abounds in Bayfield. Visitors looking for land based recreation can enjoy
hiking and bicycling trails, golf at Apostle Highlands or across the water at Madeline Island Golf
Club, berry picking at a multitude of orchards a mile out of town, or horseback riding. Two museums,
the Bayfield Heritage Museum and the Maritime Museum, offer a glimpse into Bayfield’s past and the
Isle Vista Casino north of Bayfield offers gaming and live entertainment.
No trip to Bayfield can be called complete without a trip to the Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua.
Most every night during the summer season, Big Top offers top rated international, regional, and
local performers in a variety of shows.
For entertainment with a historic bent, take a Bayfield Heritage Walking Tour or the thrilling
Ghost Tour and learn of Bayfield’s haunted past and present. And be sure to stop in at the Apostle
Islands National Lakeshore headquarters (this 1883 courthouse is on the National Register of Historic
Places) where park staff is available to help plan trips to the national lakeshore and books,
postcards, maps, videos, and other Apostle Islands-themed merchandise is available for sale.
Shopping, art galleries and a tour of our orchards rounds out the many choices available to those wishing to keep both feet on the land!
