Wisconsin

Summer in Wisconsin means celebrations, festivals and numerous local events that take advantage of the lazy days of summer. Don’t miss La Crosse’s Riverfest, July 1-5, with more than 200 hours of live entertainment on 6 stages.

Wisconsin, located in America's heartland, is a four-season travel destination offering both urban and rural vacations. Ranked a top travel spot in the United States, Wisconsin owes much of its popularity to its natural beauty, with two Great Lakes, Superior and Michigan, and the world's most famous river, the Mississippi, as well as 15,000 inland lakes.

Forty percent of the state is forested land, with 43 state parks and 11 state forests providing plenty of outdoor recreation. Wisconsin's also been described as having the best natural golf course landscape in the country.

In the spring and summer, travelers enjoy water-related activities, including fishing, sailing and canoeing. Fall is the time for majestic color when the leaves turn and the entire state offers spectacular scenic touring. Winter features ample cross-country and downhill skiing, festivals, sled dog races, sleigh rides and snowmobiling. Visit www.travelwisconsin.com.
