With the lack of snow and cold weather all winter, Langlade County’s funded snowmobile and winter ATV trails will not open during the remainder of the 2023-24 season, regardless of any potential snowfall by March 31.

We would like to extend a thank you to the clubs, volunteers, and landowners that make our trail system possible. We look forward to next winter for a more successful snowmobile and winter ATV season.
