Campground Overview

About Pier County Park

What makes Pier County Park Campground stand out is its rare sandstone natural bridge, picturesque riverside setting, and intimate camping experience. Offering only six first-come, first-serve campsites amid a 10-acre park, this destination combines a sense of seclusion with unique geological and historical appeal. With rock formations towering nearly 60 feet above the Pine River’s confluence and lush greenery, the park creates an exceptional outdoor experience that exceeds expectations for such a compact space.

Located in Rockbridge, just a short drive from Richland Center, Wisconsin, the park’s key attractions include its half-mile sandstone ridge topped with pine trees, stairs leading to sweeping views, a man-made tunnel through the rock formation, and historical markers commemorating its significance in the Blackhawk Wars. Amenities include picnic tables, grills, two shelters, pit toilets, and play equipment, making it suitable for day trips or weekend retreats. Nearby, the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway and Natural Bridge State Park provide additional exploration opportunities within a 30-minute drive, ideal for adventurous campers.
