The Sheboygan River is a 33.9-mile-long river that flows through Sheboygan County in eastern Wisconsin. The river was originally used by Native Americans for fishing and transportation, and later by European settlers for logging and milling. The river's hydrology has been significantly altered over time, with several dams and reservoirs constructed along its length for hydroelectric power generation and flood control. The Sheboygan River also serves as a source of water for agricultural irrigation. The three main reservoirs on the river are Elkhart Lake, Crystal Lake, and Sheboygan Falls Dam. Recreational activities on the river include fishing, boating, and kayaking. Despite historical pollution from industry and agriculture, significant cleanup efforts have led to improvements in water quality and increased fish populations.
