Winter Travel In Wisconsin 101

Traveling during the winter can be difficult. It’s even harder when you add in the Upper Midwest and the state of Wisconsin. In addition to being known for getting a lot of snow, Wisconsin is also home to Wisconsin Dells which had a lot of waterparks, both indoor and outdoor. So what do you plan for? What do you pack? We’ve put on our trusty travel hats to bring you the best winter travel tips for Wisconsin. You’ll want to come prepared for your stay with us at Chula Vista Resort this winter season.

Whether you choose to arrive by plane or car, we have you covered. Driving in winter can be tough. The roads are often slippery when ice is present and snow can make visibility difficult to see. Check your car before you head out on a cross-country family road trip. If you’re not accustomed to winter roads, make sure your tires are winter ready. You may also consider bringing your car to a local shop for a quick inspection. It might be a good idea to create a winter safety bag with all the necessary items in case you run into car trouble. This can include things like extra phone chargers, blankets, flashlights, food, water and more.

Flying by plane? No Problem, just don’t forget to bring your jacket! You may also want to back your carry-on with a few essentials to get you through your flight.Let’s face it some flights are great while others, not so much. You may want to include a small bag of toiletries, any necessary medications or health products, travel pillows and blankets, socks, water bottle, and snacks. You may want to add your favorite form of entertainment to keep you busy during your flight.

Wisconsin weather, especially in the winter, may make you want to bring your whole closet along, but who has the room or arm strength for that? We suggest that you bring layers. This way you can fight the winter chill and stay comfortable by removing layers if temperatures go up.

Consider bring basic base layer items that you can mix and match. Did you know that if you have 16 items of clothing, there are roughly 40 possible outfits choices? That’s a lot of outfits, so we’re sure you’ll find something to wear that fits the weather. Don’t forget your swimsuit!

We know that Jackets and larger items will take up most of the space in your luggage. Try rolling your clothing instead of stacking it. If you don’t want to do that you can get luggage compartments for your bags that will help organize and separate your clothing.
