A panoramic view of rolling hills in Wisconsin's Driftless region.

Join us in the field.

Our events are opportunities to experience the Driftless up close, alongside the people working to protect it. Many will take you onto private lands rarely open to the public and showcase thriving, well-managed habitats you won’t see anywhere else.

Spots are limited, and many events fill quickly, so save your place today! Every season brings new discoveries. Each walk, presentation, hike, or volunteer day presents opportunities to witness conservation in action.

All events are open to the public and welcome participants of all ages (unless otherwise noted). If you need assistance with the online registration process, please call the DALC office at (608) 930-3252.
