Paddling Wisconsin's State Parks

Paddling Wisconsin's State Parks

There are so many ways we love to experience nature, and one of our favorites is by paddling. Kayaking and canoeing, even paddle boarding on occasion. We love seeing the wild by water and Wisconsin's wilderness is no exception. The Land of 15,000 Lakes (and 12,600 rivers and streams) is chock full of paddling opportunities, and our beautiful state parks make for a great place to start.

After paddling many a Wisconsin state park, we're happy to offer up these six recommendations for both river and lake excursions.

Our Public Lands Pledge

Our Public Lands Pledge

As American citizens, we have a unique and wonderful right, the right to enjoy beautiful public lands that are set aside for all of us. It’s a right rooted in the democratic idea that the country is for the people. This notion that land should be made available to every citizen, not just the wealthiest and most privileged among us, has long been a cherished part of our American fabric.
