Black Hawk's Retreat Tour

Serene surroundings, steep slopes, easy rolling ridge tops and scenic valley bottoms make it hard to believe this area is the site of one of the saddest conflicts berween the U.S. Army and Native Americans. Numerous historical markers en route tell the tale of the final days of the Suak warrior Black Hawk indians retreat.

This is a 35 mile long route on paved and gravel roads, or a 17 mile short route on paved roads. Sometimes can be very difficult with long, extremely steep climbs.

Trailhead is located at the Blackhawk Park at the swimming beach and historical marker. More infomation can be obtained at the Virocqua Chamber of Commerce, 608-648-3314.
