ATV/UTV Trails opening in May in Bayfield County

Bayfield County ATV/UTV trails officially open May 1, along with the Chequamegon Nicolet National Forest trails.

This rescinds the closure order issued earlier this year. Trails are in spring condition, and maintenance crews are actively working on them. As a result, the Bayfield County forestry and tourism departments encourage riders to be aware of their surroundings, ride with caution and report any hazardous trees or other trail issues to the Bayfield County Forestry and Parks Department at (715) 373-6114 or forestry@bayfieldcounty.wi.gov.

Riders must stay on the designated trails and routes and follow the trail signs. New trail maps are available and can be found at area businesses and local chambers of commerce. They can also be viewed at travelbayfieldcounty.com/atvtrails. Off-roading enthusiasts can also view the trail map on the Avenza app.
