Belmont Mound State Park, State park in Belmont, Wisconsin.
Belmont Mound State Park is a state park in Wisconsin covering 274 acres with trails that wind through natural landscapes. The park features geological formations shaped by glacial activity and offers views across a high elevation point.
The park was established in 1961 to protect a landscape shaped by glacial activity thousands of years ago. These geological changes created the landform visible today and define the park's natural features.
Native American communities left numerous artifacts throughout the park area, showing sustained human presence long before European settlement arrived. These findings reveal how people lived on and used this land in earlier times.
The park is open from sunrise to sunset year-round with trails, picnic areas, and educational programs available. Visitors should be prepared for changing weather conditions as the park operates in all four seasons.
The mound rises approximately 380 feet above the surrounding terrain and provides an observation point with views stretching across multiple states. This unusual height in an otherwise flat region makes it a rare geographical feature in the area.
