Access to White Mound County Park Impacted
Access to White Mound County Park may be impacted due to road improvements to part of State Highway 23 until November 2024. Road closure starts at County Highway GG to US Highway 14 in Spring Green. Please use this Wisconsin DOT link to review the full overview of the project and give our office if you have any questions.

At approximately 1,100 acres, White Mound County Park offers a little bit of everything. White Mound gets its name from a vanished village located south of the park. The village was named for the white-like mounds of limestone found in the area. An abandoned limestone kiln can still be seen in the park.

White Mound County Park offers a campground with 46 campsites, 37 of which include electrical hookups. The camping season begins in May and closes in November – weather permitting. A dump station and water fill-up stations are provided. White Mound County Park also offers horse trails for those who bring their own horses. The horse trails are open May 15 through November 1 – weather permitting. Pets are allowed in all of our parks, but they need to remain on a 6ft leash at all times.

The park surrounds the 104 acre White Mound Lake that many use for paddle boarding, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, fishing and boating at a slow-no-wake speed. Users can access the lake via the boat landing, shoreline or via the ADA fishing pier. Types of fish found in White Mound Lake include panfish, largemouth bass, northern pike and catfish. Paddle boards, kayaks, a canoe, and a pedal boat are available to rent at the office. Please call ahead to verify that the office will be open for equipment rental. 

New to White Mound County Park is the Prairie Smoke Terrace. Built in 2018, the Prairie Smoke Terrace overlooks White Mound Lake, is available to rent all seasons and seats about 64 people indoors.

There are miles of trails throughout the park. Trails include access for hiking, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling (weather permitting). Scattered around the park are many picnic areas that include playgrounds, grills, picnic tables, hammock stations, bathrooms and shelters (available to reserve for a fee).

White Mound County Park possesses an exceptional and distinguished quality of starry nights – many astronomers visit the park to see the night sky.

Hunting and trapping are allowed in many areas of the park.  No trapping allowed within 5 feet of the shoreline of White Mound Lake. An entrance fee is required.
