Outdoor pursuits abound in Door County, where groups are encouraged to get into the fresh air during the warmer months. A local event planner with her finger on the pulse of area activities shares her thoughts on ideas for an enjoyable few hours outside the meeting room.
The Team Leadership Center in Sturgeon Bay offers kayak, stand-up paddleboard and zip-line tours, as well as a variety of team-building and instructional programs at locations throughout the county. Conquer the climbing wall, high ropes course or lead your team through an adventure race or eco challenge. Attendees will enjoy themselves and take away skills that could last a lifetime.
Sailing aboard the tall ship Edith M. Becker via Sister Bay-based outfitter Sail Door County is a beautiful way to see the peninsula. Enjoy a sunset sail with a bottle of local Door County wine and artisan cheese, or climb aboard one of their sloops and slip away to the open waters.
Door County Trolley offers lighthouse tours, scenic tours, ghost tours, wine tours and progressive dinner tours. This is a fun and enjoyable way to relax, see the county and learn about the local flavor as your guide narrates each tour. The trolley is also available for private charter for your special event.
