About Dubuque Hills
The Dubuque Hills are a small, rolling hill range located in eastern Iowa. This modest range features gently sloping, forested hills and bluffs carved by the Mississippi River. The terrain is characterized by a mix of deciduous forests, grasslands, and scattered wetlands. Elevations range from around 600 feet along the river to just over 1,000 feet at the highest points. While not especially rugged, the Dubuque Hills offer a scenic natural landscape for outdoor recreation in the Hawkeye State.
