Lost Canyon Tours

For a Wisconsin Dells experience that you’ll be talking about long after the visit is over, check out Lost Canyon Tours! Picture the scene: You’re riding along in a horse-drawn carriage, as it carries you through Wisconsin’s deepest and longest land canyon; tall cliffs, ancient rocks, and deep gorges surround you. You’ll feel like you’re living through a western movie scene! Experience this and much more with a Lost Canyon Tour. 

What Makes Lost Canyon Tours So Special? 

This isn’t your average sightseeing tour. Since the 1950s, Lost Canyon Tours has been taking visitors on a unique adventure through one of Wisconsin’s most amazing natural landscapes. Run by the Kissack family since the late 1960s, this tour is one of the longest-running, family-owned businesses in the area. They’ve kept it old school in the best way possible with horse-drawn carriages! No motors, no noise, just the quiet clop-clop-clop of horses’ hooves as they lead the way through this canyon. 

Step into the Past 

When you take the Lost Canyon Tour, it feels like you’re stepping back in time. Imagine yourself as one of the early pioneers, making your way through a mile-long canyon with parts so deep, they haven’t felt sunlight in over 50,000 years!  

Seriously, that’s how deep and narrow some of the sections are! As you move through the canyon, you’ll squeeze through rock passages so tight, even the horses hesitate before stepping forward. Guides have to encourage the horses through the tight squeeze!  

But don’t worry, you’re in good hands. The guides know this canyon inside and out, sharing stories about the history of the area, pointing out cool rock facts & formations, and making sure your experience is as magical as possible.  

Why You’ll Love It 

If you’re looking for something fun and unique to do in Wisconsin Dells, a Lost Canyon Tour checks all the boxes. You’ll be winding through gorges, gliding past towering sandstone cliffs, while completely surrounded by nature. The air is fresh and cool, and it’s peaceful. You can sit back and enjoy the ride with no worries.  

It’s not every day you get to ride in a horse-drawn carriage! Listen and learn about a canyon that has remained here for thousands of years and explore a different side of nature you may not have known existed! Lost Canyon Tours are a unique, fun way to spend an afternoon and you’ll be so glad you did.
