Fern Dell

With 27 different types of ferns growing here, it is easy to see why this is such a popular stop on the Duck tour. Keep your eyes open, you won't want to miss the beautiful scenery that is characteristic of Wisconsin Dells.

It's amazing to see the large variety of ferns that grow here such as the walking fern, the interrupted fern and the cinnamon fern. With names like these, Fern Dell seems like a world unto its own. The cliffs you can see on either side of the Duck act as a natural air conditioner providing excellent growing conditions for the many fern varieties.

Looking for a cool summer vacation activity? Fern Dell is a great place on a hot summer day. Visitors cool off as the temperature drops as much as 12 degrees lower here than in other areas of the Dells. Leaving Fern Dell, Normandy Beach will "splash" into the water.
