Whether you enjoy snowy outdoor activities like skiing and sleigh riding or prefer to enjoy the scenery by looking out a window, the Badger State offers a variety of fun winter activities for everyone. For visitors looking to experience the uniqueness of a Wisconsin winter, activities such as snowshoeing, snowboarding, and snowmobiling are offered throughout the state. Ice fishing is common on most of our beautiful lakes. If you’re looking to come in from the cold, Wisconsin has a great deal of museums, shops, and restaurants where you can grab a cup of hot chocolate and watch the snow fall from the warmth of the indoors. On behalf of the state of Wisconsin, welcome! We are happy to be the perfect destination for winter travelers and are excited you’re here. Sincerely, Scott Walker Governor
