Directions: I 35 South
Trail Information: This is an idealistic place if you are
interested in quiet, non-interrupted trail running, especially during the
winter! There are trees galore, wildlife (deer, squirrels, small animals),
streams, rivers, waterfalls and "resting" spots where you can devour
every ounce of the beautiful scenery. You won't find any water fountains
on the trails, only in the park. The trails are usually not kept up well in the
winter, but offer a great challenge! This is an easy place to motivate and
relax you on your journey for personal fitness! I don't recall the exact names
of all the trails, they are usually determined by what waterfall or campsite you
want to find. They range from .5 miles to 7 miles. ENJOY!
Miscellaneous Information: Patteson State Park offers camping,
hiking, waterfalls and swimming. There is a fee to enter, $3.00/hour
parking or a year pass for $18.00 (WI resident)...The parking lots are monitored
much more during the summer months...you will get a ticket!
