Holidays in Rio

Been partying too much after work? Desperate for a break and a few early nights? Rio might just be the ticket. It sits among the forests and lakes of Wisconsin — nice and not too touristy. (We bet you'll feel so relaxed, you'll be under the doona by sunset!)

It's situated 1,150 kilometres to the west of the country's capital, Washington.

It's well known that simply spending time in nature is good for both your mind and body. Keeping that in mind, why wouldn't you travel 50 kilometres out of Rio to Mirror Lake State Park? Governor Nelson State Park, 40 kilometres away, is one more popular choice.

Make sure you pack some red and white clothing so you can support the local college basketball team, the Wisconsin Badgers, at Kohl Center. Located 45 kilometres away in Madison, the stadium is also the home ground of the Wisconsin Badgers.

Spend your day alternating between the fluffy snow and a roasting fire at Cascade Mountain Ski Area and Fox Hill Ski Area. From first timers to pros, there's something to please everyone at these snowy wonderlands.

Looking for some additional nearby destinations? Pardeeville is about 11 kilometres to the northwest, so get in the car and start exploring! Alternatively, Poynette, 15 kilometres southwest of Rio, is also worthy of your time.

Both tourists and locals often make the journey to Baraboo. This place is 40 kilometres to the west and pretty close to Devil's Lake State Park, the Circus World Museum and the Al. Ringling Mansion. If you're staying on a while, remember to stop by the Flyways Waterfowl Museum and the Ochsner Zoo.

See the region's scenery from a fresh perspective and partake in some snowmobiling or ice skating. They're both well-liked hobbies around here.

Cycling and bird watching are ideal ways to give yourself some time out while getting some fresh air and Vitamin D.

If you're flying home, it's wise to decide a route to the terminal before leaving. From the centre of Rio, you'll need to travel around 35 kilometres south to Dane County Regional Airport (MSN), the nearest airport.
