Search Waupaca Wisconsin

Wisconsin's Rustic Roads system is described as a positive step backwards. This grassroots movement preserves the character of unique by-ways. It has designated more than 60 roads in the past 20 years. These roads are protected from development. You'll be glad they are when riding Rural Road and Emmons Creek Road.

Rural Road Tour is a roll through our nation's nineteenth century heritage. Simple Greek Revival and Italianate Victorian homes mix with woods and fields along the route. On Emmons Creek Road you'll plunge into a forest canopy adjacent to a wildlife preserve. There Fountain Lake Road is a another popular favorite.

The outer loop is 24 miles, the east loop is 14 miles. and the west loop is 18 miles. All are easy to moderate with some steep hills on the west loop.

Trailhead location is Hartman Creek State Park at Hartman Lake beach parking lot on Windfeldt Ln, Waupaca County. Contact Waupaca Area Chamber of Commerce, 800-236-2222.
