Here’s a look at some of the more interesting activities to be found in reasonably close proximity to our Wisconsin Bed and Breakfast. As with all things these days, you should verify current hours and COVID restrictions independently before traveling.
- Head to Tower Hill State Park, and get a glimpse of early Wisconsin history. Take the time to hike the bluff trails, too, and enjoy beautiful views of the Lower Wisconsin River. It’s also a great place for some winter birdwatching.
- At Governor Dodge State Park, which also happens to be one of the largest Wisconsin State Parks, you’ll find all the winter fun you could ask for. This park is perfect for classic winter activities, such as skiing, snowmobiling, winter hiking and snowshoeing, sledding, and ice fishing.
- For some truly beautiful winter views, head to the Ferry Bluff State Natural Area, where you’ll stand more than 300 feet above the confluence of Honey Creek and the Wisconsin River. Not only is it beautiful here, but it’s also a popular winter roosting site for Bald Eagles, giving visitors a great chance to watch these majestic birds. There are also cross country skiing trails in the park.
- Head into downtown Spring Green, where there is great shopping, art galleries worth browsing, and plenty of restaurants to enjoy.
- Devil’s Lake State Park, one of Wisconsin’s most popular State Parks, isn’t too far away and is well worth the drive if you’re truly looking for great places for cross country skiing and winter hiking or snowshoeing. While you’re up there, the town of Baraboo is worth exploring, too.
- Head to the nearby towns of Prairie du Sac and Sauk City, located on the Wisconsin River. There, enjoy an afternoon of wine or beer tasting, followed by an afternoon of eagle watching – one of our favorite things to do in Spring Green WI in the winter.
