Yesterday, Josh and I ventured to Bluemound State Park for some exploring and hiking. This state park was highly recommended to both of us by many people. The park has a swimming pool (the only state park in Wisconsin that has one), some observation towers, and a variety of hiking trails.
Our verdict: the camping looks to be very cool, but the trails...not so much. The trails are more geared toward bikers and skiers. They were pretty flat, open, and uneventful overall. We did hike one interesting trail that wound around through the woods, but this was the best Bluemound had to offer in our opinions. The lookout towers were pretty neat, offering a great panorama of scenery - you could even glimpse the Capitol building from the top. As for any future visits to Bluemound, we already scoped out some good camping spots for next year. Lounging by the pool might be fun, and maybe adding biking to our list of things to do would make a camping getaway exciting :)
