Merrimac Preserve & Gallus Slough (and Merrimac free ferry)

This is a POI file of parking locations/trailheads of the Merrimac Preserve, just outside of Devil's Lake State Park, Wisconsin.

Here's a link to describe the preserve:

If the trails in Devil's Lake SP are too crowded or too ambitious, there are no available parking spaces at Parfrey's Glen SNA, or your fear of heights makes you avoid Gibraltar Rock SNA, these may suit you. The 1-mile Observation Deck loop Trail is flat, the surface is mown grass and very easy to follow and it has a raised observation deck to check out the Baraboo Range and nearby areas.

This POI file also contains the North and South free state ferry loading areas which you should enjoy while in the neighborhood:

If you're spending time in the area and enjoy hiking, you may also want to visit the POI file for the Wisconsin State Natural Areas:

and given the number of large dairy farms in the state, maybe this file as well:
