Wickiup Hill Natural Area is located along the Cedar River
northwest of Cedar Rapids and is part of the Cedar River
Greenbelt.
The Wickiup Hill Outdoor Learning Area is being developed on 240
acres of this 563-acre area.
The Outdoor Learning Area is closed to hunting. The rest of Wickiup
Hill is open to hunting.
The Friends of the Linn County Conservation Board are raising money
to complete the educational facilities and expand the Outdoor
Learning Area.
Wickiup Hill features both upland and bottomland timber and is
excellent wildlife habitat.
The new 10,000 sq. foot Wickiup Hill Outdoor Learning Center
opened in the fall of 2002, and is the central location for our
outdoor learning and education programming.
Newly developed trails are now open with excellent signage to
assist visitors.
A portion of the trail system is groomed for cross country skiing
during the winter months - assuming sufficient snow cover is in
place.
To contact the Education Staff directly, you may call the center at
