Blue Mound offers views of many colors
Wisconsin has many wonderful places to view fall colors, but one of the best has to be Blue Mound State Park, west of Madison. The 1,153-acre park is on the highest hill in southern Wisconsin -- 1.716 feet above sea level -- and the seventh highest point in the state overall. So, from it you can see miles of beautiful color.
