👍👍 Meticulously groomed. Varried terrain. Consistent snow. This is a XC ski destination. It has something for everyone from beginner to expert. Don't have skis? Rentals are available. They also rent back country (rustic cabins) for the adventurish.

Interstate Falls Park
Park
👍👍 A fantastic quick hike! We were looking for something fun and quick to do while in Ironwood for one night and Interstate Falls did not disappoint. Probably 25-30 minutes with the walk and time enjoying the falls. Don’t let Google Maps trick you, you need to come in from the Wisconsin side off Highw...

Longyear Park
City park
👍 A mix of old & new. Come show your kids how you used to play! Metal slide, metal monkey bars, seesaws, and an odd duck ride my kids didn’t try. A newer set too alongside it. A fun blast from the past for parents .

Hiawatha, World's Largest Native American Statue
Cultural landmark
👍 So much history in this town to learn about. We enjoyed seeing the statue, as well as the mining information. It's in a cute smaller park with some playground equipment for kids and space to run around. It can also be a quick stop if driving through.

Gile Falls
Scenic spot
👍 The falls are amazing, location and access, not so much. There's no parking lot and signs are hidden. Thankful for the blogger that warned me. As you turn down the tiny road, immediately to your right are boulders and tall grass. That's where you park off the street. Follow the grassy path to the Fa...

Ironwood Welcome Center
Tourist information center
😐 The woman working at this welcome center is the least helpful I’ve ever encountered. Fortunately they have tons of complementary maps. Just Be sure to look through them thoroughly to find what you need.

Curry Park Campground
RV park
😐 We came up here expecting to tent camp, and were excited about the prices, we read over the rules and it had said "no ground fires" (only in grills or fire rings) well they had campsites open with all the other fire rings taken. It's first come first serve which is understandable. Prices are reasona...
