There is no set order for viewing the barns. Vernon County is very wide stretching from the Mississippi River on the west to Hillsboro on the far east. The round barns are mostly located in the eastern part of the county between Viroqua and Hillsboro. We have a map covering the whole area of the tour and smaller, more detailed maps of each barn location.

Please be aware:

*All barns are on private property. Most are visible from the road, depending on the time of year.

**Respect private property and do not walk onto the property or into the barn without owner permission.
