Event Info

A 1921 dairy barn, a hundred acres of Driftless hills, and everything you need to find your way there.

The place

A dairy barn, a hundred acres, and the Driftless hills

Zweifelpalooza is held inside a dairy barn built in 1921 and owned by the Zweifel family. Located just outside of Madison, the Circle S Ranch sits on 100 acres of Driftless Area beauty.

The farm sits just across the road from the Madison School Forest and Olson Oak Woods State Natural Area. With miles of hiking trails, bird watching, and native plants, there is no lack of activities for those looking to see the area the day following the event.

Just across the road

Stay the morning, wander the woods

Sleep in, grab some breakfast, then cross the road. Two public natural areas start where the farm ends, so the day after the party is a good excuse to explore the area.

  • Miles of hiking trails
  • Bird watching
  • Native plants
