Observing at Ledge Park

Ledge Park is a Dodge County Park. It offers 5th to 6th magnitude skies. From the volleyball court observing area, which is just south of campsites #1 and #2, you have a good southern horizon view. The northern, eastern and western directions are somewhat blocked by trees with the northern horizon being blocked the most.

We have been able to call ahead at stay past closing hours and they will leave the gate open for us. The park number is 920-387-5450.
