Wilson Creek

Walk Historic Wilson Creek.

Open: All Year
Location: Starts at the Park
     Information: Wilson Creek has many walking and biking opportunities. We are adding a mile long walking and bike trail complete with benches and interpretive signage to be completed in the spring of 2007. The new trail provides a way for pedestrians and bicyclists to view and appreciate the natural areas adjacent to Wilson Creek. The interpretive signs will provide information on Wilson Creek history and culture. This will complete a two mile loop. Visitors to Wilson Creek can obtain a pamphlet from the town hall, at a kiosk on railroad street next to the caboose or by downloading the PDF Here.

City Hall

Open: All Year by appointment
Location: Down Town
      This bank building, built in 1906, is listed on the National Historic Register. The building was restored to its original state in 2000. The Town Hall and museum are located here.

Caboose

Open: All Year
Location: The town park
      The Great Northern Caboose was a gift from the BNSF to The Town of Wilson Creek. It is a reminder of the important role that the railroad played in the development of the town. Wilson Creek was the division point for the railroad. It had coal and water facilities and an eleven stall roundhouse. Interpretive signage, detailing the history of the railroad in Wilson Creek, was completed in 2007.
