Adventure into the Driftless Blufflands of Aefintyr Campground for a hike-in getaway that blends the thrill of backpacking with the ease and comfort of a prepared campsite. Enjoy a hike to the blufftop (1,460 ft, 230 ft elevation gain) where your private woodland campsite awaits!
IMPORTANT: The uphill hike requires physical effort and you will need to carry any items you bring —pack light and use backpacks, as carts don’t work on the rocky trail. Please consider your health, physical abilities and your willingness to pack light when you decide to book! Your host is happy to answer any questions and help with planning your trip.
