You’ve Never Experienced Anything Like This Epic Abandoned Railroad Hike In Wisconsin

Wisconsin is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, and one of the best things we have here is a variety of hiking trails. All of our hiking trails are scenic, but you will find a few really interesting trails here. These are trails that used to be railroads. Because of this, you get some incredible views. You also get to experience the trail that many passengers took. The Badger State Trail is a 40 mile rail-trail. It starts from the Illinois-Wisconsin border and it goes up to Madison.
