Kettle Moraine State Forest

1

The Kettle Moraine State Forest is a state forest in southeastern Wisconsin. The chief feature of the reserve is the Kettle Moraine, a highly glaciated area. The area contains very hilly terrain and glacial landforms, such as kettles, kames and eskers. The 56000 acres forest is divided into two large and three small units, which are spread across a hundred miles. The forest includes 250 miles of hiking trails, almost 100 miles of cross-country ski trails, 130 miles of equestrian trails, 150 miles of snowmobile trails, 75 miles of off-road bicycle trails including 30 miles of singletrack trail, and 750 campsites. All units include a portion of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail and most units have horse/snowmobile trails. Several areas of trail loops for hiking, biking and skiing can be found in the northern and southern units. The Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive is a 115 mi scenic route that winds across southeastern Wisconsin, and through all five forest units.
