Wisconsin boardwalk empire at the Black River Falls rest area
Most rest areas along interstates have one trail people walk along. This is the trail from their car to the toilet and back. At the westbound I-94 Black River Falls rest area there is a scenic look out and a trail that leads to it near mile marker 121. The trail leads up a hill and then along these board walks to a scenic look out. This is a nice little walk to break up the long drive to northern Wisconsin.

Wow, what a great tip. I stop here pretty much every time I’m coming home from a trip to the east or southeast and climb to the peak – wonderful views, especially under a frosty full moon.
I’m recalling lots of great memories from this post – thanks!
Thanks RambleFeet,
I imagine a lot of people skip this hike and only do the bathroom stop. This last time I did the hike the view was obscured by clouds and fog. Checking it out at night under a full moon sounds really cool.
Great photo (as usual!).
Before you cross the bridge to take boardwalk, there is an old path that takes you to a higher view. Although it is no longer maintained so it is obscured.
Thanks Kurt,
Next time I stop here to stretch my legs, I will check out your tip.
