A walk along the Wisconsin River is a must especially in the fall when the leaves are in full color. The historic downtown area near the river is also quite enjoyable, filled with shops and local eateries.

Do

• Stevens Point Brewery, 2617 Water Street, ☏ +1 715 344-9310. This brewery has been in constant operation since 1857. The tour is interesting and informative. The tour costs $3.00 but at the end you will more than make up for it in the tasting room. They serve any of their locally produced beers or sodas at your request. In addition, the gift shop has a wide selection of items. 
• The World's Largest Trivia Contest, Citywide. Every April, the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point's campus radio station, WWSP (89.9 FM) holds a 54-hour long trivia contest that is the largest in the World. Each year approximately 400 teams and 12,000 players answer questions about anything and everything and compete for the Point Cup. Another trivia contest is held in October in which no outside sources (books, internet, etc) are allowed. 
• UWSP Museum of Natural History, 900 Reserve St, ☏ +1 715 346-2858. The Museum of Natural History is an integral educational entity within the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point concerned with diversity and relationships in nature and among cultures.
