An Old Garbage Dump Is Now One Of The Best Places In Wisconsin To Go Biking

If you’re interested in unearthing a new adventure, head to Langlade County, where a beautiful trail is located in an unlikely place - an old garbage dump. The Antigo Single Track Mountain Bike Trail in Wisconsin is located in a place that’s been completely restored to a natural state, and it’s just one of many beautiful trails you can discover in the area. It’s one of the best destinations in the state if you love exploring the trails. Here’s what you need to know.

The Antigo Single Track Mountain Bike Trail is located in Northern Wisconsin – it’s a perfect destination for a weekend up north.

The system has 3.6 miles of exhilarating terrain, and what makes this trail truly unique is its unconventional origin. It was built on the site of an old landfill, transforming what was once a site of waste into a playground for outdoor adventure.

Located in close proximity to the town of Antigo, the Single Track Trail winds its way through rolling hills and stunning scenery, providing a thrilling experience for riders of all skill levels.

The terrain is beautiful in any season - in the winter, the trail is also used by snowshoers.

Whether you're a novice looking for a leisurely ride or a seasoned rider seeking a technical challenge, there's something for everyone on these trails.

The system includes five color-coded segments that you can explore. The trails are well marked so you won't get lost.

The landfill was capped long ago, so you won’t be dodging trash bags. In fact, there are few signs of the site’s history. This approach to repurposing land shows that the area cares about sustainability.
