County Information

Waupaca is a Wisconsin county rich in natural resources. Glacial activity created the present landscape of woodlands and rolling hills to the west, and more gently-rolling, productive farmland to the east. Glacial lakes, wetlands, fisheries and wildlife areas are located throughout the county.

From the famous Chain O’Lakes in the south, to the northern lakes of Myklebust, Mud and Pigeon, 240 lakes offer you excellent fishing, boating and opportunities for other water-based recreation.  The Wolf River, known for its spring walleye and white bass runs, provides many miles of navigable, scenic water. The Embarrass, Little Wolf, Waupaca and Crystal rivers are choice canoeing and fishing waters. Of 74 other rivers and streams, 35 are trout streams sporting 164 miles of challenging fishing.
In addition, Waupaca County attracts a variety of recreation enthusiasts in every season.  A few of the many winter possibilities include snowmobiling on 208 miles of scenic groomed county snowmobile trails, cross country skiing, ice fishlnQ, ski jumping and traveling beautiful snow-covered  back country roads.  In summer, hrke along.the Ice Age Trail, swim, bike, golf, camp or take a drive along our scenic rustic roads.
