EXPLORE THE OUTDOORS
Chippewa County is known for its incredible outdoor recreational opportunities. From hiking the breathtaking segment of the Ice Age Trail to diving into Lake Wissota, there is something for everyone - all four-season. Whether you’re a pro off-road biker headed to Hickory Ridge Recreation Area, or you are looking for an escape into the peaceful Northwoods, Chippewa County is the perfect destination. During the summer months, don’t forget to pack your bug spray, sunscreen, and water. Winter requires plenty of layers, and we recommend traveling through the woods by snowmobile, ski, or snowshoe to make your snowy adventures easier! This is your chance to make a splash, discover new terrain, and experience a new adventure in the beautiful North Woods of Chippewa County. Camp, hike, ATV, snowshoe, and so much more - let’s GO!
