Scenic Tours

      One of the most relaxing activities in the area is driving our windy, county
      roads looking for wildlife. The area is beautiful with rolling hills, class A trout
      streams, the Mississippi River and a variety of hardwood trees that display
      their fall colors that take your breath away. Tour our local vineyards, get
      a glimpse of the Amish, or choose from several historic walking tours.

      Take a short drive to the Mississippi River. Take Hwy 56 West to Genoa to
      to Lock and Dam #5. Travel along the Black Hawk Trail to follow the Native
      American retreat from the last war in the midwest.

      Vernon County has 11 round barns, more than any other county in the
      United States. The Historical Society published a book telling the location
      and history of these unique barns, which are available for purchase at the
      Viroqua Chamber Main Street Office.
