Description

Need a break from urban life in Madison but don't feel like traveling far? This trail is so close to Madison, yet it feels like a different world just out here southwest of Middleton. This portion is a great little segment of the Ice Age Trail with rolling hills, prairies, forests, and a stunning scenic overlook out west toward Blue Mound. This an essential outing for autumn!
