Wild River is located along 18 miles of
the beautiful St. Croix River. The park attracts people who enjoy
camping, hiking, horseback riding, canoeing, interpretive programs,
self-guided trails, and cross-country skiing. Day visitors can enjoy a
leisurely paddle down the St. Croix River from the Sunrise river access
to the southern park river access. The park provides opportunities for
semi-modern camping, group camping, backpack camping, canoe camping,
and walk-in camping. Visitors who want modern amenities can reserve the
guest house which provides a living room, dining room, kitchen, and
fireplace. The park also has two camping cabins which include bunkbeds,
a table, and benches. An all-season trail center is a great spot to
relax after hiking or cross-country skiing on the 35-mile trail system.
A visitor center with exhibits and environmental education programs is
open year-round.
