Trails in Wisconsin

[cyclingchef]

Alright, Alright, I need to know. Where are there good trails in Wisconsin to do some moderate off roading? I've got the itch and some free time. Anyone know any good trails? Thanks.

Nicolet National Forest north of you has a TON of forest service roads. Most are easy, but occasionally you find some more difficult areas. Also, there's McCaslin Mountain Offroad Park that has more to offer for more difficult trails.

That's what I know of - I've been up in that area twice this year. Pretty area.

Thanks for the info! I'll look into those places, hopefully sooner than later. I've never gone trail riding before so I need to do some research and crap to find out what to take, plan the trip etc. thanks for the startup yo!

how long is that from ur area yellow?

The Nicolet trails we ran twice this year are up near Laona, WI. (Nicolet NF Map) I would say, probably between 5-6 hours from Elgin, IL/Chicago area.

McCaslin Mountain offroad park is just a tiny bit closer... probably between 4-4-1/2 - 5 hour drive from the Chicago area. I haven't run this park at all, but I've been there. I'd like to try it sometime next spring/summer.

I believe you meant, we're going to run that park next year.

Right down in Oshvegas, I went to school there briefly. I haven't been to McCaslin yet as we had our 2nd baby last summer but I plan to this summer. I have hit up many logging roads in Nicolet though, my avatar pic is from a road heading to Meyers Falls north of Laona.
