LaSalle Falls Trailhead — Attraction in Town of Commonwealth

If you're in northeast Wisconsin looking to hike or to scout waterfalls, LaSalle Falls is definitely worth the trip. Some reviewers have given this location a low review due to the road that gets you there.

Our group had ages 5-68 years old, and everyone did just fine on the trail. Lots of nice wildflowers/plants along the edges of the trail. We saw wild strawberries, blackberry bushes, columbine, creeping dogwood. Spotted a snapping turtle crossing the road toward the river on our...
