Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Amnicon Falls State Park adventure.
Discover the serene beauty of Amnicon Falls State Park.
Previously a logging, mining and trapping site, Amnicon Falls State Park is now a miniature holy grail of North American natural forestry. Tucked in the northwestern corner of Wisconsin near the borders of Minnesota and Canada, the brownstone quarries within the park once provided the materials that built Duluth, Minnesota–the birthplace of Bob Dylan. Now a protected sanctuary, pine, borrel, white birch and traces of aspen shade the 1.8 miles of hiking and snowshoeing trails.
And now a drum roll please… waterfalls. There’s tons of them! Cross the footbridge to get to the Amnicon Falls Island and meander the quarter of a mile trail to see three of the parks main falls. Take the tripod along to get beautiful, milky canvas worthy shots.
The best time to visit Amnicon Falls State Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the park's full splendor is on display. Winter can be harsh, with limited access to some areas due to snow and ice.
