Chequamegon
Area Trails
(SAWYER COUNTY)
There’s something for everyone on CAMBA’s trails. And, if you don’t
find all you like here, there are more than 200 miles of signed CAMBA
trails in the region. The trails we’ve shown are a Northwood’s variety
pack. Several of these CAMBA loops include short segments of the famous
Birkebeiner cross-country ski trail. Portions of the trails and roads are
part of the course for the Chequamegon 40, one of the nation’s premier
mountain bike races. Don’t let that scare you. You don’t have to race
to have a good time on the CAMBA trails.
Trail Facts:
Distance: 24 miles are possible if all loops are ridden from Seeley to
Mosquito Brook and back, (not including much of the Birkebeiner Trail,
most of which is not a CAMBA-signed trail).
Difficulty: Easy to difficult.
Surface type: Grassy X-C ski trails, logging roads, snowmobile trail,
gravel paved and sandy forest roads. There is soft surface in some low
spots.
Signage: Frequent blue and white CAMBA signs and periodic “you are
here” map-signs.
Trailhead locations: Mosquito Brook Rd./Birkebeiner Trail crossing - 6
miles northeast of Hayward; or Silverthorn Park, 11 miles north of
Hayward.

Cabin and Mosquito Brook lots.
