Best Place to See Color
Bright fall hues are speckled throughout the Platteville community. You're sure to find a bit of color at most of the city's parks, but make sure you don't miss the Veterans Memorial at City Park with the orange hues for a backdrop. Stroll the Rountree Branch Trail or Mound View Park trails for more opportunities for spectacular fall color. Feeling ambitious? Climb the 290 stairs to the top of the World's Largest 'M' for a can't-be-beat tri-state view.
Color Status
The early-changing maples are putting on quite a show right now, blazing orange and red amid the still-green vegetation. The fall color is sparse, but vibrant.
Area Activities and Events
Saturday, Oct. 20 is full of activities in Platteville. Start with a visit to the Platteville Farmers Market at City Park from 8 a.m.-noon, then venture downtown for coffee or lunch. Join the re-dedication of the Kopp Memorial Garden at 9 a.m. at The Mining & Rollo Jamison Museums. At noon, bring your bicycle for the Platteville Public Library's Fall Community Bike Ride at Mound View Park. Check out UW-Platteville's home events, with the football team kicking off at noon and women's soccer competing at 6 p.m. And for those that wish to take a drive to take in more scenery, it is opening day for Vesperman Farms! They will kick off their fall season of fun at 10 a.m. Saturday morning. Check out their website to see all there is to do!
