About Ice Age Trail
The Ice Age National Scenic Trail mostly follows older trails and minor roadways. Although it primarily is a footpath, many legs are open also for other activities. It stretches 1,200 miles (1,900 km) in Wisconsin. The trail is administered by the National Park Service, and is constructed and maintained by private and public agencies including theIce Age Trail Alliance, a non-profit and member/volunteer-based organization with 21 local chapters. The trail roughly follows the location of the terminal moraine from the last Ice Age. As the route traverses the moraine, it sometimes meanders into areas west of the moraine, including theDriftless Areain southwestern Wisconsin. The trail passes through 30 of Wisconsin's 72 counties, from the northwestern part of the state to the Lake Michigan sho
