According to the Wausau Paper website, "Most company lands are open to the public for hunting and fishing. Other recreational activities include snowmobiling, hiking and cross country skiing."

Another option is to find a real estate agent in central Wisconsin who specializes in recreational acreage. There are websites available to help you search central Wisconsin land parcels through various agents. This way, you may find "secondhand" Wausau Paper land--parcels that somebody once bought through Wausau Paper, then put back on the market. Such lots may be better than direct purchases, as they will include regrowth where the timber was originally harvested.
