There’s a short trail in northern Wisconsin where every single step is spectacular. In Amnicon Falls State Park, there’s a little lollypop loop of a trail that takes visitors past not one, not two, but three gorgeous waterfalls. And if that’s not enough, there’s a fourth waterfall on a side trail, just steps away. It’s an incredible hike that’s appropriate for even the littlest hiker or park visitors on the shortest timeframe. It’s one of the best little hikes in Wisconsin. Here’s what’s waiting for you on the trail.

You’ll find Amnicon Falls State Park about 10 miles east of Superior in far northern Wisconsin. It’s known for its series of waterfalls along the Amnicon River.
