Devil’s Lake has long held the title of Wisconsin’s most popular park, and it’s easy to see why. Its dramatic quartzite cliffs and namesake lake, coupled with its proximity to the state’s major metropolitan areas, make it a must-visit for most Wisconsinites (and Midwesterners).
But its large number of visitors can detract from the quiet natural experience many people seek in the outdoors.
Enter: Wisconsin’s least visited state parks.
While they might not be as flashy as Devil’s Lake, these parks offer unique natural and in some cases historical experiences, without the crowds of the state’s more popular parks.
