Located in the Town of Erin, the Pavcek Preserve is 32 acres within Restoring Lands’ Holy Hill Project Area. This preserve contains rolling hills and shallow valleys typically found in the Mid-Kettle Moraine region. The majority of the preserve is forested in upland hardwoods with some lowland hardwoods near wetland areas. The forest includes sugar maple, oak, hickory, basswood and ample woodland perennials. Its most prominent feature is an esker (glacially formed ridge) in the northeastern corner of the property which rises roughly 35’ from the forest floor. Enjoy the 0.6-mile loop trail that takes you around the preserve. To respect and protect the sensitive plant and animal communities that thrive here, please keep dogs on leash at all times.
There is NO HUNTING allowed at this preserve.
To visit, park in the gravel lot off of HWY K, or Kettle Moraine Scenic Dr.
