A walk in Sister Bay
Bay Shore Drive runs the waterfront the length of the village, and Ephraim is the next walk up the road. Door County's season closer, running for the eightieth year. When it ends, most of the peninsula shutters until spring.

On the map
FOG: Fog of War Walking Map starts with Sister Bay under fog and clears it only where you physically walk. In a town this size the downtown comes out of the dark in whole blocks in an afternoon, and it stays cleared. No start button, no workout to end: it runs with the app closed and the screen off, and it needs no signal.
Somewhere to eat afterwards is on the Sister Bay festival page.
