Elroy is on the West fork of the Baraboo River in the heart of Wisconsin's 'driftless' area. The forested hills and valleys provide natural beauty and plenty of chances to spend some quality time with your family. Three bike trails, a theater, library and a museum are just a few of its attractive features. Elroy is best known as the birthplace and home of former Governor Tommy Thompson.  

The '400' State Trail, the Elroy-Sparta State Trail and the Juneau County Omaha Trail are the three bicycle trails that meet in Elroy. They are all built on discontinued rail lines that once served the area. They are also used as snowmobile trails in the winter. The Elroy-Sparta trail was the first official 'Rails to Trails' bicycle trail in the nation. The Elroy-Sparta trail and the '400' trail join at the Elroy Commons, and the Omaha trail is connected by way of the new covered bridge. For more information on the bike trails,  contact the City of Elroy, or the  Hill Country Chamber of Commerce.
