Golf in Sparta

Sparta is a city in Monroe County, set in the Driftless country of west-central Wisconsin along the La Crosse River. Calling itself the Bicycling Capital of America, the city anchors the celebrated Elroy-Sparta State Trail, one of the first rail-trails in the country, which runs through tunnels carved into the Driftless hills. Sparta sits in the coulee country where the unglaciated ridges and valleys define the landscape, near Fort McCoy and the bluffs that rise toward La Crosse. The area blends its trail-town identity with the surrounding dairy farms. Golfers in the area find recreational courses set among the ridges and valleys of the Driftless. With La Crosse to the west and Tomah within reach to the east, Sparta offers a base for golf in Monroe County, in the scenic Driftless country of west-central Wisconsin, where the bikeable trails, the tunnels, and the coulees define the landscape.
