Surprise yourself with a wide variety of recreation activities

For recreation, Shawano offers good family fun and budget vacation packages for summer, winter, and all year round. Whether you are looking for a cozy winter wonderland vacation with ice fishing and snow mobiling, deer hunting in the fall, or a summer budget family vacation package with go kart and motorcycle racing, mini golf and bumper boats, camping, fishing and water skiing on Shawano Lake, Shawano offers this and much more. For a great Wisconsin vacation, rent a vacation home or vacation cottage on the Wolf River for a relaxing view of the sunset. Or send your children to one of the kids summer camps in the area. And don't miss the historic places and historical landmarks in Shawano while you're here.

There's a petting zoo next door to the AmericInn on Green Bay Street with llamas, goats and donkeys. Llamas in the middle of northern Wisconsin--who would have guessed? For more wild animal viewing, a farm east of Shawano has a small herd of buffalo, for a look back in time and a glimpse at the great animals that once roamed and owned the Great Plains.

And of course, the Green Bay Packers and Lambeau Field are just 35 miles to the East. Shawano offers several excellent hotels with good rates for home game weekends.
