North Central Wisconsin Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels
About North Central Wisconsin
Most of North Central Wisconsin is part of the Northern Highland geographical region. The Northern Highland is covered in woodlands. The most common trees of the Northern Highland are the Sugar Maple, Aspen, Basswood, Hemlock, and Yellow Birch, as well as Red and White Pine. A large amount of the forestland in the region is included within the 1½ million-acre (6,150-km²) Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. State and county forests also cover a significant part of the region, and only a small portion of the land is devoted to agriculture. The wildlife of the Northern Highlands includes whitetail deer, timber wolves, elk, moose, and bear. Despite the absence of large cities, tourism is an important part of the local economy.
