All the way up in the far northwest corner of the state, a few miles outside Superior, Amnicon Falls State Park looks like something out of a dream. With four separate, but easily accessible waterfalls, a campground and some gorgeous scenery, a trip to Amnicon looks like you stepped through the wardrobe and into a magical alternate reality…maybe this is Wisconsin’s Narnia.
The falls are named for the river that forms them - the Amnicon flows through here and around an island, creating the different falls.
Looking down over Snake Pit Falls is a bit dizzying, but it does take you out of your head and leave you wondering what stories there are to be told here.
Admiring the falls, swimming in their pools and feeling their spray on your face is enough to make you feel like you might have stepped into the pages of a fairytale.
This park is just as dreamy in the winter as it is in the summer. You lose the running of the waterfalls, but the quiet park takes on an ethereal quality.
Being able to walk all around and view the power of the river and its falls from so many angles really lets you appreciate the natural beauty created here.
