Willow Falls is located in Willow River State Park, about 10 miles northeast of Hudson, Wisconsin. The falls are at least 100 feet wide, consisting of several drops, the largest of which is about 15 feet high. The uppermost drops are only visible from the rim. Well-maintained hiking trails in the state park easily access the falls. In 1924, a dam was built here, which diverted all the water from the main falls and drowned the upper drops. In 1992, the dam was removed, restoring the falls. It also restored the impressive gorge.

Hiking

It’s a long, beautiful hike. Bring water and definitely something to swim in. Lots of places to sit and rest. Lots of space to camp, kayak, fish.
