Guttenberg, IA

Guttenberg hugs the Mississippi River in northeast Iowa, where dramatic limestone bluffs create one of the state's most scenic riverside locations. Highway 52 runs north-south through town, connecting to Dubuque 25 miles south and continuing toward Minnesota. Most visitors arrive via Highway 18 from the west or county roads from Highway 13. The city's Lock and Dam No. 10 offers close-up views of massive barges navigating the engineered river channels.
