Most Popular Area Attractions

Eagle River Ice Palace

Each winter in northern Wisconsin, the city of Eagle River continues a tradition dating back to the 1920s. Local firefighters, along with volunteers from the community, donate more than 700 hours constructing the very large Eagle River Ice Palace. C.H. Hanke, owner of a ice route, began this annual event which has continued in his family throughout the years. His grandson, firefighter Jack Thomas, still oversees the palace construction. The palace is usually built during the last weekend of December and has become quite an attraction throughout the years.

Volunteers construct the 20-foot-high palace with more than 2,500 sixty-pound blocks of ice cut from local Silver Lake. Some of Hanke's original equipment including a conveyor system and ice saw, is used to transport the ice to trucks, for hauling to downtown Eagle River. Each year a different design is used for the hand-made ice palace, making it one of the most photographed attractions in the area. Within the last several years, colored floodlights have added a beautiful touch to this magnificent Eagle River tradition. Make your way to northern Wisconsin to see this wonderful winter-time attraction and check into the local Best Western hotel to enjoy comfortable accommodations.
