Wadena

The town of Wadena is situated just north of the Quill Lakes and Fishing Lake at the junction of Hwys 5 and 35. The Wadena and District Museum and Nature Centre houses nature displays relevant to the Quill Lakes Bird Area and specifically the Wadena Wetlands as well as local historical items; however due to the high water levels and flooding, the wetland observation towers and trails are temporarily closed until further notice.

This progressive community offers a variety of modern recreation facilities including a recreation centre, curling rink, outdoor swimming pool, golf course, ball diamonds, horse track and parks.
