The 7 Best Things to do Adventurous in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin (WI)

August 25, 2021 Mollie Coke

Take a long deep breath and kiss your stresses good-bye: this lovely, year-round resort town offers a laid-back atmosphere that lets you slowly unwind. Beach buffs can don their swimsuits and head for one of several beaches on seven-mile-long Geneva Lake, which also offers a plethora of water sports. Leisurely cruises on restored historic yachts and replicas of paddle wheel steamers carry passengers past stately lakefront summer mansions, including some Victorian estates. Landlubbers can take a self-guided hike around the perimeter of the lake, which stretches some 21 miles. Laid-back, however, doesn't mean there isn't plenty to do. Choose from museums, a water park for younger kids, the world's largest refracting telescope at Yerkes Observatory, entertainment at the Belfry Music Theatre or greyhound racing. Winter is even quieter but no less filled with fun. Head to The Mountain Top, a popular family ski spot, or choose from horseback riding, skating, ice boating, hayrides or sleigh rides. Whatever time of year you go, Lake Geneva will charm you.

You must stop into the Lake Geneva clue Room when you're up and Lake Geneva Wisconsin. The staff is great. What a fun experience either with your family or in our case it was a team building for our executives. They were mind twisters and not easy but it really pulled everybody together to try to figure it out. We had a lot of fun and I highly recommend it for your family or your company.

me and my bf took my son to the safari..it was our first time there..we enjoyed it alot..alot of the animals were sweet except for the ostrich and zebra..the lady wasn't kidding to watch out for the ostriches. We went around a few times until the feed was gone. More animals kept coming out each time. My son loved it so much we hope to come back again for the wagon ride if open next year. The lady at the front gate was very nice and helpful. Thanks so much for the 2 extra buckets, was very kind of u! I definitely recommend checking this place out.
