In Baraboo, WI - Choose your own adventure:

  • Explore Wisconsin’s most-visited state park
  • Take in the circus in the Ringling Brothers’ hometown
  • Stroll through a historic downtown straight out of a Rockwell portrait

If you visit Baraboo, you won’t have to choose. But you might not be able to do it all in one day.

Devil’s Lake State Park lies just south of town, affording breathtaking views of the Baraboo Range for those willing to hike the top of the bluff. While hikers and climbers navigate the rocks, paddlers and swimmers glide through the tranquil waters below.

Located on the riverbanks where the Ringling brothers launched their touring show, Circus World presents two big top shows daily, featuring aerialists, animal acts and clowns.

Those very streets are home to an eclectic array of specialty shops and restaurants. Downtown Baraboo’s architecture makes it a historic site, but its enticing selection of destinations – from a toy store to a day spa to an old-fashioned soda fountain – also make it a bustling business district.

You’ll find an enticing array of restaurants downtown, from the Little Village Café on the courthouse square to Broadway Diner, located just down the street in a former dining car. Families will love the Log Cabin Restaurant on the east side of town. Adults will enjoy the self-serve beer taps at Draft City Taproom on the west side.

Speaking of beverages… if you find yourself parched after a long day of hiking, shopping and sightseeing, Baraboo has you covered. This community is home to three wineries, two breweries and an award-winning distillery.
