Rocky Arbor State Park

The 244-acre park contains sandstone walls and ledges formed by erosion, with a small creek running through the natural landscape.

Established in 1932, the park preserves geological formations dating back 500 million years when the area was covered by shallow inland seas.

The Wisconsin River once carved channels through this area, leaving exposed rock walls before changing course to its current position.

The park maintains 89 campsites, including 18 with electrical hookups, plus showers, flush toilets, a playground, and a picnic area.

A single loop trail guides visitors through sandstone outcrops, with temperatures varying from -13°C in January to 27°C in July.
