Sign up for this once-in-a-lifetime experience and journey across the scenic Kettle Moraine countryside aboard a horse-powered covered wagon. Ours is a faithful reproduction of the Prairie Schooners that traveled west across the continent in the 1800s; it was manufactured by Hansen Wheel & Wagon Shop and finished in the traditional colors of prairie schooners. Register along with family and friends for one of nine scheduled 30-minute rides on aforementioned Saturdays and get a feel for how Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family traveled throughout the Midwest during the mid to late 1800s.   

While the ride is sure to be a highlight of your visit, you won’t want to miss the many other activities and interactive experiences at historic Wade House which are available at an additional cost. The Wesley W. Jung Carriage Museum houses the largest collection of historic carriages and wagons in Wisconsin and makes a great stop before or after your ride—then, explore the well-preserved Wade House Stagecoach Inn, and discover the work of our talented tradesmen at the sawmill and blacksmith shop (general admission to Wade House Historic Site is available for an additional fee).
