Sand Creek Brewery, located in Black River Falls, is Wisconsin's third largest microbrewery. They brew fine craft-brewed ales and lagers, producing over 30 different beers on a proprietary and contractual level. It resides within the historic Oderbolz Brewing Company which was the first large scale brewery in western Wisconsin in 1856.
68,000 acres of pine and oak forest with two forks of the Black River and high sandstone abutments. Permit required for backpacking. Hike, bike and ski. How about island hopping on a mountain bike? The 300-foot-high glacial mounds strung out like a seven-mile-long necklace in the Black River State Forest seem like islands in a vast ocean of trees. From scenic overlooks on their peaks, you can look to the northeast where 10,000 years ago the bottled-up glacial meltwater of Lake Wisconsin once covered 1,800 square miles. Pets are welcome in Wisconsin State Parks but must be on a leash and under control at all times. Certain areas may be off limits to pets.
