Upham Woods 4-H Environmental Education Center is a residential facility operated by the University of Wisconsin-Extension and located on the Wisconsin River, two miles north of Wisconsin Dells. The site consists of 13 buildings that supply lodging, meals, and environmental, outdoor, and experiential education resources year round for youth, youth leaders, and adults.
The center rests on 310 acres of forested land including Black Hawk Island, a 210 acre designated state natural area. This wooded property is considered one of the few remaining old growth natural areas of the state. The rock cliffs, shady canyons, caves, upland, and sandy beaches feature a variety of flora, fauna, and unique geologic and cultural history.
