Amnicon Falls State Park
County Highway U, .3 mile north of U.S. Highway 2, Superior, Wisconsin

Amnicon Falls State Park features a series of delightful waterfalls and rapids along the Amnicon River. You can view them from a covered foot bridge or trails along the river, or—if you're sure-footed—from the rocky shore of the river.

Visitors to Amnicon falls cool off in the spray of the falls.

The park is a place to picnic, camp, walk in the woods, and learn about the Douglas Fault, the geological formation that created the falls. There are many things to do and see in the area, too. It's part of Wisconsin's Superior Coastal Plain Landscape.
