Travel + Leisure went on a search of the great outdoors to find the best spots for hiking in the country, compiling a list of the best hiking trail in each state. According to the site:

While Wisconsin has no shortage of amateur-friendly and challenging hikes alike in its various parks, the best hiking trail in the Badger State is Ice Age National Scenic Trail. Here's what the site had to say:
"In Sauk County, Wisconsin lies Devil's Lake State Park, with scenic trails and waterways that make it a fun outdoor getaway. One of the most popular trails around Devil's Lake is the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. The trail is actually 1,200 miles in total, 11 of which are in Devil's Lake State Park.
