Fall brings the glorious color <strong>of</strong> the<br />
hills which is worth the drive from miles<br />
away, and while there, you can dine at<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the town’s four restaurants, and<br />
stop at the local shops.<br />
Winter brings snowmobiling with<br />
over 40 miles <strong>of</strong> trails, and hunting is a<br />
pleasurable sport for many sportsmen.<br />
Cabin rentals are available locally all year.<br />
Spring brings the promise <strong>of</strong> good<br />
fishing, growing crops, and another<br />
successful season for the locally run<br />
shops and restaurants alike. Trout<br />
fishing in many <strong>of</strong> the local streams is a<br />
must for many fishermen. Norskedalen<br />
Nature and Heritage Center is a 400-<br />
acre facility that is located 3 miles<br />
north <strong>of</strong> Coon Valley on <strong>County</strong><br />
Highway PI. Norskedalen holds many<br />
seasonal cultural events and provides<br />
educational programs all year. Hiking<br />
trails, museums, a library, gift shop, and<br />
a pioneer farmstead let people enjoy a<br />
little Norwegian Heritage. An annual fall<br />
Threshing Bee and Norskedalen’s Old<br />
Fashioned Christmas are highly awaited<br />
events. Skumsrud Heritage Farm is<br />
owned and operated by Norskedalen,<br />
and is located 1/2 mile west <strong>of</strong> Coon<br />
Valley on Highway 14/61. This is an<br />
open air museum with 11 historic<br />
buildings and is on the National Register<br />
<strong>of</strong> Historic Places, open Memorial Day<br />
through Labor Day.<br />
