About
Welcome to Marathon County, the capital of American ginseng, where the land is blessed with fertile soil and cool climate that have made it a prime location for cultivating this prized herb. Thanks to the pioneering efforts of the Fromm brothers, who introduced the cultivation of American ginseng to Marathon in the 1920s, the town has become a hub of ginseng farming and processing, attracting visitors and buyers from around the world to this special herb — the American Ginseng.
Marathon County in Wisconsin also offers a variety of outdoor activities and attractions for adventurers. Here are some of the top options:
1. Rib Mountain State Park: This park features hiking and biking trails, camping areas, and a 60-foot observation tower with panoramic views of the surrounding area.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, my spouse and I were looking for an escape from our mundane lives. We decided to convert a Mercedes Sprinter 170 into a fully functional camper van, and soon fell in love with the idea of living on the open road. After living in our van for over a year, we realized that the experience had profoundly changed us, teaching us to appreciate the simple things in life and to live in the moment.
