Wildcat State Park Group Campground

About

Located in the heart of Wisconsin's Driftless Area, the group campground at Wildcat Mountain State Park provides outdoor camping for groups of various sizes. The campground features three reservable sites situated approximately half a mile east of the nature center and maintenance building. Group sites 1 and 2 can each accommodate up to 25 people, while the larger group site 3 can hold up to 50 people, making the area suitable for family reunions, scout troops, and other organized groups. The campground is equipped with vault toilets, picnic tables, fire rings at each site, and a shelter house for gathering. Since there is no water directly at the group camp, campers must obtain drinking water from the shower building in the family campground, the park maintenance building, or from a portable water tank located within the group camp area. Firewood is available for purchase at the park. The group campground sits on a ridge rising steeply above the scenic Kickapoo River valley, offering access to the park's extensive trail system. Wildcat Mountain State Park spans over 3,600 acres of wooded terrain with 25.8 miles of trails, providing opportunities for hiking, cross-country skiing in winter, and exploring the natural beauty of the Kickapoo River valley. The park is open year-round from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., making it accessible for groups during all seasons. Pets are allowed in the campground on leashes no longer than 8 feet.
