Willow River State Park is a nearly 3000-acre park located five miles north of Hudson, Wisconsin. The park's centerpiece is Willow Falls, a mighty cascade into a 200-foot-deep gorge.

Each loop will take you to the far corners of the park to enjoy its many different topographic highlights, forests, grasslands, and panoramic views.
