Golf in Durand

Durand is a small city in Pepin County, set in the Driftless country of west-central Wisconsin along the Chippewa River near its confluence with the Mississippi. As the Pepin County seat, the city anchors a scenic, lightly populated corner of the state, with the river and the surrounding bluffs defining the landscape. The unglaciated terrain rises sharply in wooded ridges and deep valleys, and nearby Lake Pepin, a wide stretch of the Mississippi, draws visitors to the river towns. Durand keeps the quiet character of rural west-central Wisconsin. Golfers in the area find recreational courses set among the bluffs and river country. With Eau Claire to the northeast and the Mississippi River towns of Lake Pepin nearby, Durand offers an unhurried base for golf in Pepin County, in one of the most scenic stretches of the Chippewa and Mississippi river country in western Wisconsin.
