Wisconsin

Here are some of the benefits of visiting Wisconsin during the shoulder seasons:

• Mild weather: Wisconsin has a humid continental climate, with hot, humid summers and cold, snowy winters. The shoulder seasons offer pleasant temperatures, making them ideal for sightseeing, exploring, and enjoying the outdoors.
• Smaller crowds: The shoulder seasons are less crowded than the peak summer season, so you’ll be able to enjoy Wisconsin’s popular tourist attractions without having to deal with large crowds. This is especially important if you’re visiting popular destinations like Door County, the Wisconsin Dells, and the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore.
• Lower prices: Prices for flights, accommodation, and activities are generally lower during the shoulder seasons than during the peak summer season. This means you can save money on your trip without having to sacrifice quality.

Here are some specific examples of how you can enjoy the most of Wisconsin during the shoulder seasons:

• Spring (April to June): The weather in spring is typically sunny and mild, with occasional showers. This is a great time to visit for wildflowers in bloom, hiking in the state parks, and attending the many festivals that are held throughout the state, such as the Wisconsin State Fair and the Milwaukee Air & Water Show.
• Autumn (September to October): The weather in autumn is also typically sunny and mild, with occasional showers. This is a great time to visit for leaf peeping in the Northwoods, attending the many fall festivals that are held throughout the state, such as the Cedarburg Wine & Harvest Festival and the Wisconsin State Cranberry Festival, and visiting the many pumpkin patches and haunted houses throughout the state.

While there are many great times to visit Wisconsin, if you’re looking for the best weather and the most opportunities to enjoy the state’s natural beauty and attractions, then we recommend visiting during the shoulder seasons of spring and autumn.
