The Dunbar WI trail system is open all year long. To the west you have the WI Cheese Trails. (Darlington WI) and more North but not so far up it Black River Falls.
What is nice about the Dunbar system is that you can go into MI also! We make a weekend out of it. Leave the cabin Saturday morning ride all day into MI. Find a place to stay and ride back next day. It can be a true adventure!!

I'm from Wisconsin (madison). The Cheese County trails are alright, but kinda boring. It's an old railroad bed, so it's flat. Also there is a 30 mph limit on that trail. Black River Falls has MUCH more fun trails and is a considerably larger trail system. There are various campgrounds on the trails, along with hotels you can stay in, if you wanted to go for a weekend trip. I've also rode on the trails in the Park Falls area. The trails in the upper part of the state are even larger as they involve riding through a lot of forest land. I can't wait to run the XP on the trails this summer!!!!!!
