About La Crosse

La Crosse, Wisconsin is the northern-Mississippi cruise call beneath the limestone Grandad Bluff, which gives a four-state panorama from a 180-metre lookout over the river. The Hixon House Victorian-era lumber-baron mansion, the Riverside Park sculpture of King Gambrinus (Wisconsin's brewing heritage on display), and the World's Largest Six-Pack of Heileman's Old Style at the brewery downtown are the supporting attractions. Most operators pair the call with a coach trip into the rolling Driftless Area south-east of town.
