People come to western Wisconsin from all over the country and live here because of beautiful areas to camp, hike, swim, hunt, fish, bike, ski, boat and explore.

Accidents Along the Elroy-Sparta Trail

In addition to Wisconsin Dells, Milwaukee, Madison and Green Bay, a top spot for tourists who visit Wisconsin for scenic pleasure is the Elroy-Sparta Trail, located near Wilton and Norwalk. Located off of Highways 16 and 71, this path along the decommissioned and abandoned Chicago and North Western Railway line offers a 32 mile trail, including three tunnels and bridges for all ages to enjoy. This unique area is a popular destination for bike riders, hikers, walkers and runners. At peak season, this area can become quite congested, increasing the chance for a collision.
