Norskedalen Visitors' Center
If you're looking for something different from the ordinary;
you need to get away from the hectic present and step back into the past; you need to just get back to nature and bask in the beauty of God's country, or you just need to re-connect with your family, your self, or the earth, Norskedalen invites you to explore its visitors' center, arboretum and trails, a guided tour of our 1890's restored Bekkum Pioneer Log Farmstead outdoor museum; and indoor heritage and nature museums, gift shop and grounds. Four hundred acres nestled 3 miles north of Coon Valley, Wisconsin will give you that breath of fresh air; that sigh of relief and that respite you need and deserve from the frazzling pace of our everyday lives.
Norskedalen Cottages
You may want to plan your get-away around Norskedalen special events celebrating the seasons and history of our region: Midsummer Fest, in June, is a Scandinavian celebration of the summer solstice; in August we have an Old-Fashioned Ice Cream Social; in September we commemorate the harvest in pioneer style with our Threshing Bee; October brings our Civil War Heritage Weekend, and our Ghoulees in the Coulees, a haunted Halloween hike; and in December we feature holiday activities of the past with our Old-Fashioned Christmas.
