What to do in December

First snow, first tracks

In December you'll find winter camping at 19 Wisconsin state parks, forests and trails, cross-country skiing at 101, snowshoeing at 104, hiking at 114, sledding at 9, ice fishing at 20 and mountain & fat biking at 37.

Good to know

Winter camping is real here: the parks below keep plowed sites, and some have electric hookups.
A 12-month sticker makes a great gift. Buy it online and give the physical sticker.
Ski season usually starts up north first. Check each property's Conditions page for grooming reports.
