Allamakee County

History and nature blend into beautiful parks and recreation in Allamakee County. In the northeastern tip of the state of Iowa, Allamakee County boasts the Effigy Mounds National Monument, Mississippi River bluffs and abundant hunting and fishing areas.

A four-season paradise, sports enthusiasts will love the beautiful canoeing along the Upper Iowa, Yellow and Mississippi Rivers. Several trout streams are well stocked with popular game fish. Horseback riding, hiking and camping round out the warm weather months. Autumn months bring about hunting seasons for popular game such as turkey, pheasant, partridge and deer. Cross country skiing and snowmobiling are winter sports made for this area. The drive through the area is scenic whatever season you visit.
