JANESVILLE

Wisconsin's Great Outside

Nestled on the banks of the Rock River, Janesville is truly "Wisconsin's Park Place". It is all about the outdoors - over 60 improved parks and 30 miles of paved, off-road trails including the southern-most segment of Wisconsin's Ice Age Trail with scenic views of the Rock River. Outdoor attraction include the 20-acre Rotary Botanical Garden. Approximately 20 percent of Wisconsin's buildings listed on National Register of Historic Places are found in Janesville, including the Lincoln-Tallman House - Wisconsin's only private residence where Abraham Lincoln slept. Five miles to the northeast, visit the Milton House Museum. This 1844 stagecoach inn was once a station on the Underground Railroad.
