If You Live In Wisconsin, You’ll Want To Visit This Amazing Park This Winter
As the state is currently being blanketed with about a foot of snow, I’ve never been more conflicted about my feelings for snow. All Wisconsinites have a love-hate relationship with the white stuff. It looks so gorgeous coming down and it leads to some pretty amazing winter activities, even if shoveling it and driving in it are enough to put us off the stuff for another six months.
But this winter park is a wonderland that celebrates all things involving snow and it’s enough to make you forget the sore back you got from shoveling the driveway.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/

Refresh after a long day or fuel up in-between runs.
