Brown County State Park is a very popular destination in autumn, when it turns into a hotspot for fall colors with almost twenty tree-lined miles of road and scenic vistas that overlook uninterrupted forestland stretching for miles. There’s a Nature Center and outdoor recreation opportunities include camping, hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding.
