Welcome to Rock County
Whether you’re looking to explore or just relax, Rock County
offers residents and visitors alike an abundant array of cultural,
historical, natural and recreational options. Anchored by the
Rock River, which flows from Lake Koshkonong and extends
across the Wisconsin/Illinois border, this waterway offers water
enthusiasts a range of activities – ranging from fishing to
motorized watercrafts.
For those with a passion for culture, museums and performing
arts venues can be found on the campuses of area higher
learning institutions, as well as within a number of local downtowns.
History buffs have the opportunity to stroll through a
number of places of historic significance, including landmarks
that were representative of this nation’s past socio-economic
profile.
Acres of park land and open space, representing a mixture of
local government owned and/or managed property, dot the
landscape. With this concentration, it’s no wonder why the
County Seat is known as Wisconsin’s Park Place. From the Ice
Age Trail to various river walks, bikeways and nature trails there
are over 250 miles of identified trails that weave throughout
the County. Whether riding a bicycle, horse or simply cruising
along on a pair of roller blades there are multiple trail options
that appeal to beginners and seasoned path connoisseurs alike.
Alternatively, take a drive along the County’s designated rustic
roads to capture a panoramic and/or picturesque view.
For those seeking that one of a kind gift, shoppers are encouraged
to roam through any number of antique and/or specialty stores that populate the County. Hand crafted items, ranging
from fermented beverages to chocolates and cheeses represent
a sampling of what can be found. Berry/pumpkin patches,
orchards and local Farmer’s Markets provide an excellent opportunity
to taste what Rock County is all about. Click Here, for more information on Rock County.
