Hello and Welcome...
to the 7th Annual Perkinstown Snowshoe Race; a one-day winter adventure that's nestled in the hills of northcentral Wisconsin. Join us Saturday, January 21, 2012 for an event that promises to be fun for snowshoers of all abilities. Held at the Perkinstown Winter Sports Area, hundreds of runners and walkers will snowshoe along scenic trails that twist their way through the Chequamegon National Forest. And, a warning for kids: Be on the lookout for our 7-foot mascot, Perky the Porcupine. That big old critter is always good for a few laughs. Make it a "point" to be part of the Perkinstown Snowshoe Race.
Trail Conditions...
Perkinstown trails are groomed and in good condition for snowshoeing.
