A Visit to Wisconsin

The dairy state (AKA Wisconsin) offers a number of really unique places to visit. Wisconsin offers some beauty and uniqueness in it’s outdoor settings. The state parks are well kept up with and most of them provide camping, hiking, and biking opportunities. Often thought of as one of the flat states, it is actually quite far from that truth. These two well known state parks allow you to enjoy the bluffs that were left after the glaciers receded.

Devil’s Lake State Park is the most popular of the parks, offering incredible rocky bluffs surrounding the lake itself. This state park is by far the largest of all of the state parks in Wisconsin. This lake has been admired as early as when the native peoples of Wisconsin built their effigy mounds in the part. The park also boasts a number of hiking trails ranging from easy to stenuous. The view of the lake and surrounding area is one of the reasons to try the hiking trails that go both up and down the side of the bluffs. The lake has two beaches were you can swim or rent canoes and rowboats to enjoy. You can also camp overnight in devils lake with plenty of individual camping sites, along with an area for large groups. The history of this park is incredible.

Located in Lower Wisconsin, Govenor Dodge State Park is another incredible find. Located close to House on the Rock (A historically unique house inspired by Frank Loyd Writes work) and a small distance from cave of the mounds national landmark. Another State Park in the area called Governor Dodge, also offers swimming, camping, hiking, and even horse back riding. Unique from Devil’s lake, Governor Dodge offers it’s own distinct look and feel when it comes to the terain. Governor Dodge State Park is another outstanding park in lower Wisconsin. You can also view two different waterfalls or take a swim in either of two lakes that reside in the park.
