Fun in and on the Water

Whether swimming, fishing, water-skiing or relaxing on the beach, a Wisconsin state park or forest is the perfect place to experience the wet outdoors.

With more than 15,000 inland lakes, 43,000 miles of rivers, and 659 miles of Great Lakes shoreline, water is a focal point of outdoor recreation in Wisconsin. We are fortunate to have more water-based recreation opportunites than many coastal states. Please click on the links to the left for more information about specific activities.
