The Park is free to the public and open 24/7/365. The Gift Shop and Museum are open daily year round. Summer hours: 10-5 Monday-Friday and 9-5 Saturday & Sunday. Winter hours: 10-4.
The Highground started as the Wisconsin Vietnam Veterans Memorial Project in 1984. It has grown to a 155-acre park whose mission is to Honor, Educate and Heal our Veterans, their families and all who visit. The Park includes over a dozen tributes, a museum, gift shop, pavilions, picnic areas and four miles of hiking trails. Half a million acres of incredible Wisconsin woodland and glacial moraine are visible from the point of the plaza.
The private facility, which receives no ongoing federal or state funding, is supported by private donations and grants.
