Things to Do in Wisconsin: Cheese Country Roadside Attractions

Wisconsin state flag

Wisconsin serves up cheese country charm and oversized oddities—talking cows, giant muskies, and the world’s largest penny. Some of these we’ve visited, others are still on our list. When we’ve been somewhere, the link takes you to our photo page with details and snark. Otherwise, you’ll head to their official site (assuming one exists—sometimes that’s half the adventure).
