Schmeeckle Reserve, Botanical garden in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, US.
The 280-acre Schmeeckle Reserve contains diverse natural landscapes including wetlands, woodlands, and prairie areas throughout its protected grounds.
The land transformed from farmland to a nature reserve in 1976 through a Land and Water Conservation Grant of 250,000 dollars.
The Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame established its headquarters at the reserve in 1984, emphasizing the location's environmental significance.
Visitors can explore over 5 miles of maintained trails that connect different natural habitats while observing local wildlife in their natural environment.
Lake Joanis, an artificial water body within the reserve, resulted from a construction project by Sentry Insurance during the 1970s development phase.
