Parks and Recreation
At 1,100 acres, the
largest park, White Mound is a great treasure to the county. At the
center of the park lies 104-acre White Mound Lake.
White Mound Park gets it's name from a vanished village located just south of the park. The village was named for the white look of the mounds of limestone found in the area.
An abandoned limestone kiln can still be found along one of our many hiking trails.
White Mound offers a variety of facilities for many activities,
including camping, hiking, fishing, cross-country skiing, hunting,
swimming, snowmobiling, and horseback riding. Handicap accessible
restrooms are provided. White Mound Park is located off Highway 23
between Reedsburg and Spring Green. An entrance fee is required. The daily rate is $3.00 and the annual fee is $15.00.
The park has a wonderful family style campground with 70 sites, 30 of which have electrical hookups. Pay showers, fire rings, picnic tables and water are provided. The camping season begins in April and closes in November, weather permitting. Reservation forms are available on this website.
Our two shelters can be reserved for your next reunion or summer
get-together for a small fee. These
reservation
forms are also
available on this site.
Park picnic areas include grills, picnic
tables, play areas and toilet facilities. The boat landing provides
a great way to get out and enjoy the great bass and bluegill fishing
experience on Lake White Mound. However make sure you have a trolling
motor, because no gas motors are allowed on the lake.
