From the Sugar River Trail web site (visit link) :
"New Glarus is the trail head of the Sugar River Trail. Ample parking is available for your group at the depot. The village offers many places to eat and sleep. Be sure to try some Swiss food and the local beer during your visit.

For those who enyoy ethnic heritage, "America's Little Switzerland" provides visual bliss. Village buildings present a Swiss look that welcomes you inside to discover Swiss ethnic goods and foods. Don't forget your camera!

The Sugar River Trail extends from New Glarus to Brodhead and goes through the villages of Albany and Monticello. The Sugar River Trail is an easy ride.
