Beyond the Resort: What to Do in St. Germain

Then, hit up one of the area’s nature trails for a peaceful hike among birch and maple trees. Craving a little culinary adventure? Try the famous fish fry at a local supper club, a must-do for the true Wisconsin experience. And of course, don’t leave without a visit to the Snowmobile Hall of Fame—because in St. Germain, snowmobiling is practically a second language!
