The park features a pair of observation towers affording views of the Wisconsin River valley and Baraboo Range to the north, the mounds, buttes, and rolling forests of the Driftless Area to the south and west, and the young glacial plains and city of Madison to the east. The park contains a large open field; a swimming pool (the only one in a Wisconsin State Park); shelters; campsites; and many miles of trails for hiking, biking, skiing and snowshoeing. There is a nature center by the picnic area with natural history exhibits. Naturalists offer programs in the summer. |
