We hiked the Upper Hixon Trail near Grandad Bluff in La Crosse, Wisconsin and it was beautiful! The trails are well-marked and the views overlooking the city and Mississippi River are amazing. A great spot to get outside, enjoy nature, and take in some incredible...Read More

This was a beautiful hike especially if you like to go up and down hills. When at the top of the hill you are as high as Granddad's Bluff. This is not as crowded either! Highly recommend stopping here!

Very beautiful trail, my girlfriend and I walked along one of the trails and although windy, I noticed it's a great biking trail in all seasons that offers novice and challenging trails. It's one of the highest points in the area so the sunrise/sunset is...Read More

Finally someone with enough persuasion $$$ was able to get the city of LaCrosse to make new trails and most importantly allow bicycles on many of them! The old trail system was great and I miss them but this change needed to happen for all...Read More
