Planning Tips

    About Blue Mounds Tipis

    Get statewide snow depth and trail conditions» Daily from 8 a.m. until 10 p.m. DNR is planning to redevelop the Eagle Rock Vista area of the park, which includes the interpretive center (the Manfred House) and access to the park's trail network. The interpretive center has been closed since 2015 because of structural problems, and the building needs to be removed. We are working with architectural and engineering firm TKDA to develop concepts for the area. Possible improvements include parking area renovations, trailhead amenities like bike racks and seating, a picnic shelter, and gathering space for events.Learn more and check out the project concepts.
