Snowmobile Trails
In the winter, snowmobiling is king in Oconto County, thanks to 480 miles of groomed trails that take riders from open farmland in the south to deep secluded forestland in the north. Depending on snow conditions, you can snowmobile from December through the end of March. Well-marked and meticulously maintained trails meander through this region, providing a true Northwood riding experience. Perhaps one of the most well-known trails in the state is the Nicolet State Recreational Trail, marked as State Corridor 7. This 89-mile-long former railroad grade offers a north-south route from Gillett through the towns of Suring, Mountain, Lakewood and Townsend all the way north to the Michigan border and the UP trail systems. From this main route, riders can choose from unlimited destinations, such as a very scenic ride on the Chute Pond Trail System near Mountain. Just north, the Paul Bunyan trails in the Lakewood area and the Red Arrow trails around Townsend lead to interconnecting trails that head in every direction. These include westbound connections to Langlade County and the Wolf River State Recreational Trail.
Oconto County is just a short drive from many larger Wisconsin cities, including Green Bay (50 minutes), Wausau (1 hour and 30 minutes) and Milwaukee (2 hours and 15 minutes).

ATV/UTV Trails
Trails open the last Saturday in April, weather permitting, and close the first Sunday in November. Trails vary from very easy to moderate, and all should be suitable for most riders. We are less than a full tank of gas round trip from the Fox Cities/Green Bay area!
