Crawford County, Wisconsin
The Driftless Area. That’s where you’ll find Crawford County. It’s in the southwest corner of Wisconsin, right on the Mississippi River. Prairie du Chien, the county seat, is Wisconsin’s second oldest city.
The landscape here is different from what you might expect in Wisconsin. No glaciers touched this land during the last ice age. The result? Steep hills and deep valleys. Fishing is a popular pastime here. It’s beautiful.
Organic farming has taken off in recent years. You’ll find some of the best produce around. It’s quiet out here so it’s perfect for those looking to slow down and enjoy nature.
