Wisconsin State Parks, Forests, and Trails
Current Condition Reports

It's spring in Wisconsin, that wonderful time when birds and frogs are singing and wildflowers are blooming.

All Wisconsin state parks are open, although some campsites are closed and water systems may not yet be turned on for the season.

Fewer people are working in the parks in spring than in summer. Sometimes they have to go out during posted office hours in order to tend to urgent outdoor tasks such as snowplowing and repairs. Please be patient!

Changeable weather can create rapidly changing conditions in state parks and forests. Follow the links below for details. (Dates of most recent information)
