About this park
Brigham County Park is a 232-acre Dane County park just northeast of the Village of Blue Mounds, established in 1976 and named for early settler Ebenezer Brigham. It has a 23-site rustic campground and a group camp, views over the Wisconsin River Valley, and one of southern Wisconsin's rare mature sugar maple forests. The paved Brigham Trail connects to the Military Ridge State Trail and Cave of the Mounds.

A few rules worth knowing in Madison's city parks: glass isn't allowed in any park; most parks allow alcohol in non-breakable containers, but about 20, including Brittingham, James Madison, Tenney and Law parks, are alcohol-free; and personal grills are fine in most general parks unless there's a burning ban. Conservation parks don't allow alcohol, fires or grills.
Picnic shelters are reserved online, by phone at 608-266-4711, or in person, and you pay in full when you book. Reservations for the next year open in early November, and summer weekends go fast. Dane County campgrounds (Brigham, Lake Farm, Mendota and Token Creek) also open reservations in early November through ReserveDane.
