Devil’s River State Recreational Trail is a recent work in progress, adding to the area’s rich recreational assets. A 14-mile trail, it will run from Pine Street in the Village of Denmark to Rockwood just north of Manitowoc. The trail is named after one of the most scenic spots on the trail, the Devils River Crossing. It’s breathtaking. The rail trestle towers 100 feet above the river. The trail also travels near the Maribel Caves, through rural fields, woodlands and over a bridge spanning the West Twin River and through Francis Creek. A depot-themed shelter will be built on Railroad Avenue in the Village to serve as the trailhead.

Daybreak Neighborhood Park is a newly developed small park of approximately 4 acres. It features a walking trail, a gazebo, a future playground area, a future shelter with restrooms, and an off-street parking lot. This beautiful neighborhood location also has several public demonstration areas that include a Children’s Garden, a Butterfly Garden, a Wildlife Garden and a Rain garden. There is also a windmill with a pond aeration system in the southern part of the park.
