Ice Age Trail The Ice Age Trail is one of our favorites. It's a 1200 mile National Scenic Trail in Wisconsin. The past two summers we have hiked 250 miles of the Rock County section, from Walworth, Jefferson, Dane,, Green to Sauk, around Devils Lake. The best portion is in Devils Lake State Park. The trail is generally dirt and a bit Rocky in most locations, with grassy Knolls and subtle wilderness. There are many areas where daiseys, black-eyed Susan's, Bee Balms, blue violets and hosts appear. It's a great trail to train on and the elevations are pretty moderate from 600ft up to 1200ft. The spring brings on a great aroma of sweet flowers and May is the most comfortable month to hike. One of the best features is Devil's Staircase in Janesville.
