This popular and practical guide offers new maps for Lafayette and Vernon counties, plus additional trail maps for Black Hawk (in the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway), Wildcat Mountain State Park, and Blackhawk Lake Recreational Area.

With its handy, pocket-sized format, Walking Trails Of Southern Wisconsin details routes and terrain (including geographical, biological, and historical features of interest); regulations and rules regarding hours, dogs, trail bikes, cross-country skiing, and other activities; information about restrooms, drinking water, nature centers, and other site facilities; and descriptions assessing degree of difficulty (slope, width, maintenance, etc.).
