									<h2>Our Fall Visit to Timm’s Hill</h2><p>This fall we visited Timm’s Hill County Park to see the colors at Wisconsin’s highest natural point. At 1,951 feet above sea level, it isn’t dramatic or overwhelming, but it’s a nice spot to stretch your legs, take a short hike, and enjoy the view.</p><p><strong>The Hike to the Tower</strong></p><p>The highlight of the park is the trail that leads to the observation tower. The hike is short—less than half a mile—and in autumn it’s lined with maples and birches glowing in shades of yellow, orange, and red. The walk itself is easy, though we took our time to stop and look up at the canopy.</p><p>The wooden tower stands at the end of the trail, rising just above the treetops. Climbing it is straightforward, and once you’re at the top, you can see the surrounding forests and small lakes spreading out in every direction.</p><p> </p>								</div>

									<h3>Views from the Top</h3><p>From above, the landscape looks especially pretty in fall. The mix of colors makes the forest feel alive, with bright leaves broken up by pockets of deep green pines and the shine of water below. It’s not a jaw-dropping view, but it’s peaceful and definitely worth pausing to take in.</p><p><strong>Crowds and Timing</strong></p><p>Weekends draw a lot of visitors, and the parking lot can fill quickly. When we went, the trail was already busy, and there was a line of people waiting to climb the tower. If you’re able, plan a weekday visit. You’ll likely find it quieter and easier to enjoy the experience.</p><p> </p>								</div>

									<h3>More to Explore</h3><p>The park also connects with the Ice Age Trail and has trails for skiing and snowshoeing in winter. For us, though, the simple loop to the tower was enough. It doesn’t take long, but the combination of forest trail and elevated view made it a nice stop on our fall drive.</p><p>Timm’s Hill might not feel like a major destination, but it’s a pleasant place to visit—especially when the leaves are changing. The short hike and tower climb don’t demand much time or effort, and the payoff is a wide view of northern Wisconsin’s forests. If you’re in the area during fall, it’s worth adding to your list.</p><p>If you&#8217;re looking for great places to see fall color in Wisconsin, <a href="https://wiscolens.com/2023/03/22/best-fall-hiking-in-central-wisconsin/">check out our guide here</a>!</p><p>Track Wisconsin Fall Foliage <a href="https://www.travelwisconsin.com/fall-color-report">on this page</a>.</p>								</div>
