If you’re looking for day-trip inspiration, we’ve got some suggestions. Sitting 35 miles away, La Crosse is worth hopping in the car for. Riverside Park, Mount La Crosse Ski Area and Grandad Bluff Park alone justify the drive out here. The locals will also likely point you toward Wisconsin Dells, 40 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Kalahari Indoor Waterpark. (But we’re also big fans of Noah’s Ark Waterpark and Top Secret.)
