Cross Country Skiing in Marinette County
One of the best things about living in the North Woods is the availability gorgeous and free cross-country skiing available. As soon as we get our first significant snow, it’ll be time to hit the trails!
If you have a set of skis, bring them with you when you return from winter break! We have groomed ski trails in Marinette County at the following locations:
- Governor Thompson State Park, N10008 Paust Lane, Crivitz, WI. Click the link for a trail map.
- Peshtigo River State Forest: 5 miles west of Crivitz off of County Rd. W onto Kirby Lake Lane. Click the link for a brochure and trail map.
You can get updates on trail conditions at the Marinette County website and the Skinny Ski website.
Please note that you’ll need a daily pass or annual sticker to park at and use state park trails. For more information, visit the WI state parks website.
We haven’t yet heard of any local cross-country ski rental locations. If you know of any—or know of other local trails we didn’t mention—please email Professor Rysavy, and she’ll put them into the next Driftwood.
