New Glarus, WI – America’s Little Switzerland

.Reading time 3 minutes.

Good morning!

I am on a mission to visit as many European inspired or European style towns America has to offer. New Glarus, WI was on of them.

This unique town is about 3 hours from Chicago and while it may seem like a long drive, it goes by quickly. My husband and I enjoy driving so for us the drive was peaceful and a great experience overall.
