DESTINATION

Cedarburg

The 1855 Cedarburg Mill, used as a refuge for families during the Great Indian Scare of 1862, still stands near the Columbia Road bridge over Cedar Creek.

One of the last two surviving covered bridges in the state crosses Cedar Creek about 3 miles north via CR NN and Covered Bridge Road; it was built in 1876. The other, built in 1970, spans the Crystal River in Waupaca. The Cedarburg Cultural Center at W62 N546 Washington Ave. features four galleries with changing art and history exhibits and serves as a venue for special events and musical performances; phone (262) 375-3676.

Lime Kiln Park, on Green Bay Road in nearby Grafton, features restored lime kiln chimneys and a picturesque dam. The 28-acre park, on the Milwaukee River, offers a picnic area, canoe launch, nine-hole disc-golf course, archery range and volleyball courts; phone (262) 375-5310.
