Green Circle Trail: Northern Segments

Winding through the Schmeeckle Reserve and other scenic parts of Stevens Point, the three northern segments of the Green Circle Trail offer ample outdoor recreation opportunities with fun and tasty pit stops just off the trail. 

Brickyard Trail | University Trail | Moses Creek Trail

Brickyard Trail Segment

While just a short segment, the Brickyard Trail is one of the most unique segments as you'll find the Stevens Point Sculpture Park that loops into the wooded trail. In the sculpture park, you'll find one-of-a-kind pieces nestled on the 20 acres of land - like the giant Sand County Bench.
