Hungry for adventure? Visit Baraboo

Baraboo satisfies all appetites.

Outdoors enthusiasts who hunger for adventure can scale the towering bluffs overlooking Devil’s Lake. Quests to behold this breathtaking panorama make Devil’s Lake the most popular state park in Wisconsin.

Paddlers can take to the lake or to the bubbling rapids of the Baraboo River. Now that its dams have been removed, the free-flowing Baraboo is the longest stretch of reclaimed riverway in America.

Once the lakes and rivers freeze, outdoor adventurers turn to Devil’s Head Resort in Merrimac, whose sloping golf course becomes a skier’s paradise each winter.

All this exercise creates other types of appetites. Driftless Glen Distillery on the Baraboo riverfront pairs its award-winning spirits with gourmet meals. Outside the entrance to Devil’s Lake, Tumbled Rock Brewery and Balanced Rock Winery serve up live music and outdoor ambiance as sides to their food and craft flavors.

I bet you thought I forgot about the sweet tooths. Sweets on Third offers a boost to shoppers exploring Baraboo’s Rockwellian downtown. And have you ever wanted to bite into a Cow Pie? Baraboo Candy Company’s factory store invites you to do just that. Don’t worry: These Cow Pies are made of chocolate, caramel and pecans.

Whether you’re a sweet tooth, a craft cocktail connoisseur or a weekend warrior, you will leave Baraboo satisfied.
