La Crosse: Mississippi River Bluffs and Oktoberfest Tradition
La Crosse sits on the east bank of the Mississippi River at the mouth of the La Crosse and Black Rivers. The surrounding bluffs, including the 600-foot Grandad Bluff that rises directly above downtown, are part of the Driftless Area, a region of southwestern Wisconsin untouched by the most recent glaciation. The view from the bluff top extends across the river into Minnesota and Iowa.
Oktoberfest USA has been held in La Crosse since 1961, organized around German and beer brewing heritage. G. Heileman Brewing operated the Old Style brand from the city for more than a century, and the brewery site continues under different ownership. The festival draws hundreds of thousands of visitors across its multi-day run.
The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse enrolls roughly 10,000 students and operates alongside Viterbo University, a private Franciscan institution, and Western Technical College in the city. The three campuses combined make La Crosse a regional higher education center. Gundersen Health System and Mayo Clinic Health System-Franciscan Healthcare maintain major hospital facilities, anchoring a substantial medical services economy.
