Blue Mounds is a village in Dane County, Wisconsin, United States.

[4] The village is adjacent to the Town of Blue Mounds, and is part of the Madison metropolitan area.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.91 square miles (2.36 km2), all of it land.

Each year the village is the starting point for the Horribly Hilly Hundreds bike ride along area roads that ends in a long, tough climb to the top of Blue Mound State Park.

The Step Into The Past Rendezvous, sponsored by the Blue Mounds Area Historical Society, has been held each September, but has been run by a private group in recent years, as the Blue Mounds Area Historical Society is in hiatus.

The rendezvous includes tepees, wall tents, a period weapons display, demonstrations of spinning and tanning, a tomahawk throw, and a candy cannon for children.

Each winter nearby Blue Mound State Park holds a Candlelight Ski and Hike the first Saturday in January and February.

Local tourist attractions include Blue Mound State Park; the Cave of the Mounds, a National Natural Landmark; Tyrol Basin Ski and Snowboard Area; and formerly included Little Norway, a living museum devoted to the region's Norwegian influence.

The Blue Mounds Fort historical site is just south of the village but is not easily accessible.
