High Cliff State Park is the only place around Lake Winnebago where steep limestone cliffs can be found. This lake is the largest in the state of Wisconsin. There is also a statue of Red Bird, leader of the Winebagos. There was a brief war in 1827 called the Winebagos War. This conflict took place in the summer of 1827 west of the Great Lakes between these Indians and local militia units. Red Bird was the one who took the lead in the revolt. He died in prison.

The lake is a remnant of glacial Lake Oshkosh. In the High Cliffs State Park is the Niagara Escarpment, rocks that resisted glacier erosion. The name of the lake comes from the nickname, "Winnebago," which was given to the people living in this area, the Ho-Chunk. It meant "stinking water people," this is because the lake smells strongly of fish in summer.
