Campground Road is a short out-and-back cross-country ski route in Blue Mound State Park in Wisconsin, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. The trip is about 0.3 miles round trip, with a total climb of 67 feet, so it works as a quick addition to a longer outing on the park's ski trails. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station put January highs around 28°F and lows near 7°F, and the station sits well below the park, so temperatures on the higher ground run cooler. Several ski routes start within a short walk. Pool Trail and Military Ridge Trail Access are each about 0.1 mile away, and Blue Mounds Access Trail is about 0.2 mile off. For a change of pace, the East Branch Pecatonica River offers canoeing about 4.5 miles away.
