Mt. Zion Hills - Area Info

Untouched by the Continental Glacier but sculpted by the melt waters, southwestern Wisconsin truly has striking scenic beauty. Area highlights include:

Kickapoo River...
Kickapoo River Flowing a total distance of 100 miles, the Kickapoo River only covers 33 linear miles which is why it is dubbed the most crooked river in Wisconsin. Grab your canoe and paddle down one of the best class 1 canoe rivers in the Midwest. Over 100 species of birds, including rare and endangered species, inhabit the Kickapoo River region. An array of wildlife, combined with 8,569 acres of refined hills, valleys and rock outcroppings, will make anyone cherish the beauty of nature. Be sure to bring your camera to the Kickapoo River.

Boscobel
Travel south from Mt. Zion about 10 miles and you will come across the charming little town of Boscobel. Boscobel, named "bosque belle" or beautiful woods, is just across the Wisconsin River. Known as the wild turkey hunting capital of Wisconsin, this gentle town welcomes visitors with traditional Wisconsin courtesy. Spend some time in Boscobel, Wisconsin, the birthplace of the Gideon Bible.

Mississippi River
The Mississippi River is known for its excellent selection of pan fish, large and smallmouth bass, walleye, northern pike, sauger and catfish. The third largest river in the world is one of the Midwest's most cherished assets. From yachts to canoes, the Mississippi entertains most all types of boating recreation. There are facilities along the river for picnicking, swimming, boat launching and camping. Venture out to one of the many isolated islands and relax on an exquisite sandy beach.
