OVERVIEW
BASCOM HILL: Learning Matters
Climb the hill to see Old Abe, a good luck symbol to generations of UW students. The UW campus is packed with history and architecture galore, from stately brick and sandstone buildings of the 1850s to "the worst building in the history of American universities." This tour requires strenuous walking uphill.
Online reservations are required.
