Welsh Hills Trail - gorgeous sights of Taliesin, a fairly flat, rolling trail
Weaver Road Trail - check trail alerts (esp Nov-Dec) What a sight! Limestone rocks galore and a pine relict. Park right at the corner and walk along the field to get to the trailhead.
Knobs Road Trail - check trail alerts (esp Nov-Dec)
Spring Green Nature Preserve - Our own desert right here in WI, start in an oak savanna, meander up a steep hill through the woods and come out on a bluff overlooking the entire valley. Worth the time and effort.
Governor Dodge State Park-can’t say enough about this awesome park. Great for swimming (two beaches), hiking, walking, horse back riding, paddle boarding, snow shoeing and cross country skiing.
