TRAIL REPORT
3-1-21
TRAIL IS STILL CLOSED FOR ATV USE
The trail is OPEN to ATV's when the temperature is below 29 degrees for the entire day and CLOSED to ATV's during a snowstorm and the day after.

Be sure to call the official trail hotline numbers; 

In Washington County; 262-277-1503.
 In Fond du Lac county; 920-929-6840

The road routes in the townships where it is posted are open for atv use. 
You can print out a map from the TRAIL INFO tab to the left.

A helpful tool is on Facebook, you can LIKE; ATV Eisenbahn State Trail and you will get notices sent to you on it's opening and closing. 
You will notice in Fond du Lac county on the Eisenbahn trail, there are these NO ATV signs posted at every road crossing. We are working with those responsible to correct this case of mis signage. The wheels of government move slow so please be patient. Be re assurred that atv's are permitted on the Eisenbahn between December 15th and March 15th when the temperature is below 29 degrees. 

The trail through the farm field to get to Red Cabin is available once again. STAY BETWEEN THE MARKERS SINCE THERE ARE MANY HIDDEN BOULDERS. There is a path already established so continue to follow the established path. You can take Pine Rd to 4th St. Rd as well.
If you are wondering about all the new road routes with all the new signs being posted, you may have a lot of questions on what is open and legal to ride on, and what is not. In a nutshell, all town roads in a particular township can be open once posted. This is only the town roads, not the county roads ( letters), state highways (numbers)(exceptions if under 35), or city or village roads. Please become familiar with the township roads in the town you want to ride in and their municipal boundary. It is a very involved process and fortunately there is a website that has all the needed information. go to or click   www.KettleTrails.com for all the much needed information.

In an effort to allow people to ride in the group they will feel more comfortable in, we are going to ride in 2 different groups.

A casual ride which will ride a little slower and shorter, will be shown in GREEN ITALIC on this calendar. Then there is the little faster and farther ride which will be in RED BOLD on the calendar. The rides in BLUE will have both groups staying together, having breakfast, dinner, and spending the evening together, but riding separate. This will hopefully make for a more enjoyable riding experience for everyone regardless of your riding style.
