Length: 4.1 miles

The Ice Age National Scenic Trail follows this route. A log house used by hikers is located on the Foley Road segment. The scenic beauty of R-57 is enhanced by rolling hills and an arch of trees over the road at two points. Deep ravines directly off the road are accentuated with ferns and a variety of wildflowers. Bluebirds and other wild songbirds are regular visitors to the large apple orchard along both sides of South Foley Road. The Waupaca River flows along a portion of the road; you can hear the rapids from the Cobbtown Road bridge.
