Oneida County Trails Closed

March 10, 2025

Oneida County trails closed this morning Monday 3/10 at 8 am, as per the PSA issued on March 6 from Oneida County.  We hope you enjoyed a “bonus” weekend of sledding after our volunteer groomers cleared and groomed the Forest Riders trail system.  While the PSA said the closure this morning was temporary, with temperatures reaching the 60’s this week and forecast to rise well above freezing  every day for the next 2 weeks, this is most likely the last hurrah for this season.

Thanks to our all-volunteer team who perform trail maintenance, equipment maintenance, and trail grooming!

Please continue to support our sponsors throughout the year.

161 Miles of Groomed Trails

Help Support Our Trails

The Minocqua Forest Riders maintain 161 miles of snowmobile trails in the area. Our members are from many areas all over Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa & Michigan as well as throughout Oneida and Vilas Counties.  These legendary Northwood Trails are groomed almost daily with a priority for weekend traffic.  Our trail system connects Minocqua to Price County (Pike Lake Area) on the West, North to Lac Du Flambeau (Lake of The Torches Casino and Resort), East to Minocqua, Woodruff, and Lake Tomahawk, and South to the Willow Flowage Area!!!

Always remember to stay on the trail - many miles are private property, and land owners allow us to be there!  It is a privilege that can be taken away if we are disrespectful!!
