WISCONSIN DELLS, WI – Every year the summer sun beats down on Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin, turning up the heat on visitors chasing fun. Families flock here for waterparks and outdoor thrills, but when the temperature climbs, relief becomes a priority. Luckily, this hotspot overflows with clever ways to escape the swelter, blending excitement with a chance to chill out. From plunging into wave pools to sipping a frosty shake, cooling off in the Dells is as easy as it is entertaining.  

Dive Into Water-Based Fun

Wisconsin Dells earns its title as the “Waterpark Capital of the World” for a reason. Attractions like wave pools and lazy rivers dominate the scene, keeping you submerged and refreshed. Whether you’re floating along or riding the swells, the water offers a steady break from the blazing sun. With countless options across the city, you’re never far from a splash.  

Seek Out Nature’s Air Conditioning

For a quieter escape, Lost Canyon Tours delivers a jolt of cool air via horse-drawn wagon rides. The canyon’s deepest stretches, untouched by sunlight for over 50,000 years, drop temperatures by as much as 20 degrees.

Meanwhile, Mirror Lake State Park beckons with shaded hikes through dense woods. Rent a kayak or paddleboard there, and glide past towering pines and bluffs that block the heat, offering a serene cooldown along the water’s edge.

Thrills That Chill

Adrenaline and fresh air collide on the Wisconsin River, where jet boat rides from WildThing Jet Boats and Jet Boat Adventures soak passengers in a wild, wet rush. Prefer to take control? Jet ski rentals at Dells Watersports on Lake Delton or Holiday Shores Watersports on the Upper Dells let you zip across the waves, breeze in your face.

For a higher vantage point, zipline tours—think Wilderness Canyon Zip Line Canopy Tour or BigFoot Zipline Tours—send you soaring through the treetops, where the wind cuts through the summer haze.
