State Park Loop (27 miles)
Parking and Restrooms: Dodgeville, Spring Green
This large loop is named for two state parks at either end -- Governor Dodge State Park on the south, and Tower Hill State Park on the north. 
Both have parking and facilities, but require park fees for motor vehicles. Governor Dodge State Park has hiking/biking trails, swimming, camping. With 5,270 scenic acres of steep hills, bluffs, and deep valleys plus two lakes and a waterfall, it is one of Wisconsin’s largest state parks. Tower Hill State Park is noted for the restored shot tower from
the early lead mining era. Challenging bluff trails, panoramic views, camping, canoeing and fishing on the Wisconsin River are available May through October. Other places of interest along this route are Taliesin, American Players Theater, House on the Rock Resort and Golf Course, and the House on the Rock. A scenic overlook on Hwy 23 between the 
House on the Rock and Taliesin presents you with an awe-inspiring view of the valley. Along the way on County Road Z, you will be riding through farmland that is interspersed with wooded valleys and plenty of places to stop and enjoy more great views.
