This 422-acre park is so close to home, you can walk there. The walking/bike trail meanders along the Koshkonong Creek between the Village of Cambridge and the historic Village of Rockdale (the smallest incorporated village in WI). This park has three separate use areas with shelter facilities and play areas. The trails are suitable for biking, mountain biking, hiking, cross-country skiing. For a pdf map of the park click here. The easiest access to the trail is by going left as you exit the Victorian, head toward PQ, turn left and cross the Koshkonong Creek bridge and you'll see the entrance to the trail on your left. That trail will take you through Camrock Park until you hit the tiny town of Rockdale. Once you make it to Rockdale, have a refreshment at Heathers, turn around and come back to Cambridge. It's 2 miles
there and 2 miles back.

Take a Historic Stroll through the lake front Graveyard
It sounds and is weird, but is actually very cool!! This is just North of Lake Ripley Park/Beach. You get there from Park Road to Cemetery Lane (right). It’s a very serene setting with a beautiful vista of the lake and some of the oldest graves I’ve seen since going to Europe. It’s a great walking workout up some good sized hills. Check it out!
