See beautiful views of the Island from its highest point. Be prepared to climb many stairs. It is a great workout and worth it for the view.

The town began construction for the Lookout Tower in 1968, and, without room for a crane or electricity lines, builders carried the logs for the tower on their shoulders. But town residents didn’t stop with just a tower. In 1989, a group of volunteers built a staircase leading up the steep hill to the base of the tower, clocking in a total of 186 steps. Climb those steps (there are resting benches along the way) for a look out over the northeast corner of Washington Island and see Rock Island State Park in the distance and the beginning of the Grand Traverse Islands, which stretches all the way up to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It's one of my favorite places on the island. A must-see for nature lovers! Address: 1403 Mountain Rd, Washington, WI 54246
