Why You Should Take a Trip To Southeast Wisconsin For Your Next Getaway

The Southeast Region of Wisconsin offers travelers incredible natural beauty and contrast. From Milwaukee, Wisconsin’s largest city, and clear up and down the shore, long stretches of Lake Michigan shoreline stir the imagination and coax one to retreat and wander the beaches. When the glacier moved diagonally through our beautiful state some 10,000 years ago, it gifted Southeast Wisconsin with a myriad of rich resources. Our lakes, dramatic valleys, and high, forested moraines have delighted eager tourists for more than 100 years.
