Rustic Roads

We invite you to explore the Rustic Roads - whether by car, bicycle, motorcycle or foot. These lightly traveled country roads provide a serene, peaceful experience, no matter what the season.

Rustic Road 109

Location: Northeast Wisconsin, Oconto County. North Park Avenue Road, beginning at County S in the city of Oconto and ending at Maple School Grove Road in the town of Little River.

Length: 2.3 miles

RUSTIC ROADS

Surface: Paved R-109 is referred to by some local residents as “Wisconsin’s Everglades” because the road runs through a large complex of coastal wetlands that ultimately connect to the Oconto Marsh. Along some parts of the route, travelers will see majestic cattails that line both sides of the road, as well as blue flag iris, swamp milkweed, marsh fern and lowland grasses. In the middle of the route, the trees lining the road form a graceful canopy that arches over the road. R-109 also has a century farmstead visible from the road.

Rustic Road 113

Location: Northeast Wisconsin, Oconto County. Old 32 Road, between County W and County F. Length: 9.4 miles Surface: Paved R-113 passes through the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest where beautiful wooded vistas teem with wildlife and birds. A complementary feature is the Mountain Fire Lookout Tower. It was built in 1934 and is the only fire tower still standing in the area.

R-113 also provides access to the Nicolet State Trail and cross country ski trails.

Nature Escapes Quartz Hill Quartz Hill Trail is located on Highway 32, about 4 miles north of Townsend on the border of Oconto and Forest counties. The trail is divided into two separate sections - one to the east and one to the west of Highway 32. The east section of Quartz Hill Trail leads to the summit of McCaslin Mountain.

The scenic overlook provides a panoramic view of the surrounding hills and forest.

Rated moderate to difficult, the trail presents a modest challenge to hikers due to its steep ascents and rocky, uneven terrain. However, the trail generally is dry, with boardwalks spanning the wettest areas.

Mountain Fire Lookout Tower

NATURE ESCAPES

See Northern Oconto County ablaze with fall color from 100 feet in the air. Experience a bird’s eye view of the Northwoods’ natural beauty at the Mountain Fire Lookout Tower. The Mountain Fire Lookout Tower delivers a spectacular panorama of the east side of the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. To reach the 7- by 7-foot lookout perch, all you need to do is climb 132 steps. The effort is well worth it! The Mountain Fire Lookout Tower rewards climbers with breathtakingly vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow.

The steel tower was built in 1935 by the U.S. Forest Service and Civilian Conservation Corps. Just the 41st lookout tower registered in the U.S., the tower is listed on the National Historic Lookout Register and the National Register of Historic Places. With the help of key partnerships and community donations, the Lakewood-Laona Ranger District completely restored the tower in 2015 and 2016.

For the best view, visit the Mountain Fire Lookout Tower in late September and early October typically the time of year when fall foliage is at its peak in Oconto County. The Mountain Fire Lookout Tower is located 3 miles north of Mountain and is open from 8 a.m. until sunset until Nov. 1. Visiting the site is free, but donations are appreciated.

Hagar Mountain The natural area itself is quite aesthetic with numerous rock outcrops affording scenic views and having one of the few waterfalls on the Nicolet. Hagar Mountain is owned by the USDA Forest Service and was designated a State Natural Area in 1996.

Directions: From the intersection of State Highway 32 and County Highway W in Mountain, go east on W 3 miles to the junction with FR 2630 (Bear Paw Rd). Continue on W 0.5 mile to a cabin at Fire #13124. Park along W. To reach Hagar Mountain, go north on a foot trail that runs along the property line from the east side of the cabin. Please do not trespass on private land.

Cathedral Pines

NATURE ESCAPES

Cathedral Pines is a 40-acre grove of white pine, hemlock and red pine that escaped cutting by lumberjacks in the 1900s. Located in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest’s Lakewood-Laona Ranger District, this dynamic and exceptionally scenic old-growth forest is one of the few remaining stands of towering pine and hemlock in Wisconsin.

Directions: Take State Highway 32 on the north end of the Town of Lakewood, turn southwest onto Archibald Lake Road (Forest Road 2121). Drive 1.4 miles on FR 2121, then look for the “Watchable Wildlife” sign and turn right (northwest) onto Cathedral Drive (FR 3299). Drive 0.4 mile on this gravel road to the parking lot. After your visit, continue driving northwest on Cathedral Drive, then take a right onto paved Presbyterian Road (FR 3304) and you’ll quickly come to County Highway T near Townsend.

Butler Rock

A hiking trail was developed in the Town of Brazeau to reach the county’s highest point called Butler Rock. This two mile sand trek is not for the faint-hearted, but the views are spectacular, especially during the Fall colors.

The hike to Butler Rock is moderate and totally worth the short but steep incline during the last 0.2 miles to the top. The lookout at the top of Butler Rock of the surrounding Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest is a must-see view.

Directions: In Mountain, turn right onto Old 64 Road (Old Hwy 64) drive to the second Butler Rock Road sign on your left, turn left onto the second Butler Road, proceed to Butler Rock Lookout Lane. Turn left onto Butler Rock Lookout Lane to the hiking parking lot.

Walleye Fishing

Welcome to Oconto County, home to some of the best walleye fishing in the Midwest!

Located on the shores of the Bay of Green Bay, our county offers anglers a prime location for catching this prized freshwater fish.

The Bay of Green Bay is known for its abundant population of walleye, making it a top destination for fishing enthusiasts. With its shallow waters and diverse structure, the bay provides the perfect habitat for walleye to thrive. Whether you are a seasoned pro or a beginner, you are sure to have a successful day on the water.

One of the best ways to experience walleye fishing on the Bay of Green Bay is by hiring a local guide. These experienced professionals have extensive knowledge of the bay and can take you to the best spots for catching walleye. They also provide all the necessary equipment and can offer valuable tips and techniques to help you reel in the big one.

For those who prefer to fish on their own, there are plenty of public access points along the bay where you can launch your boat or fish from shore. Some popular spots include Oconto Breakwater Park & Harbor, Pensaukee Boat Launch, and North Bay Shore County Park.

WALLEYE FISHING

The best time to fish for walleye on the Bay of Green Bay is during the spring and fall months. In the spring, walleye are spawning and can be found in shallow waters near the shoreline. In the fall, they move to deeper waters as the water temperature cools down.

However, walleye can be caught year-round on the bay, so don't hesitate to plan a fishing trip during any season.

Walleye Fishing in Oconto County FAQ

When Is Walleye Season? Walleye fishing usually kicks off on the Bay of Green Bay tributaries in late March or early April, depending on weather. In June and July, schools of walleye make their way to mid-lake flats and reefs. From August through November, anglers head to the north part of the Bay to catch trophy walleyes in the 25-33-inch range.

Why is Oconto County Such A Walleye Hotspot? Like clockwork, every spring when the ice clears, walleye migrate to the numerous rivers that feed into the Bay of Green Bay. The Bay has a thriving baitfish population for walleye to chow down on, as well as a lot of offshore structure. It’s a combo that makes the walleyes grow quickly and often to very large sizes.

Where Are the Best Spots? In addition to the Bay itself, there are a number of rivers and tributaries in Oconto County that deliver phenomenal walleye runs. Machickanee Flowage near Oconto Falls is a fisherman’s dream come true, offering walleye, northern pike, bass and panfish, in addition to trout and salmon. Same goes for the Oconto River. These various river systems provide an opportunity to fish all spring and even provide opportunities for shore fishing, but if you want a chance at your personal best, the Bay of Green Bay is the place to go. Big water = big fish.

Do I Need A Fishing License? Yes, you’ll need a paper copy of your current Wisconsin fishing license (DNR requires a paper copy for fishing on the bay of Green Bay: Non-resident or Resident).

The County is home to over 500 miles of interconnected scenic riding with options for all experience levels. Note: Wisconsin law requires those who use Wisconsin ATV or UTV trails to display either Wisconsin registration or a Nonresident Trail Pass.

The ultimate ATV excursion in Oconto County starts at the Nicolet State Recreational Trail, which spans the entire eastern segment of the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. The trail begins in Gillett.

ATV and UTV operators born on or after Jan. 1, 1988 who are at least 12 years old for ATV(and at least 16 years old for UTV) must complete an ATV and UTV safety certification course in order to operate on public ATV/UTV trails and areas in Wisconsin.

Over 500 miles of fully interconnected riding opportunities.

Oconto County is bisected from south to north by the Nicolet State Recreational Trail (NSRT) that serves as the “main highway” for access to the various types of riding available.

In northern Oconto County, most of the land off Hwy 32 is part of the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. There are many miles of interconnected trails and unpaved scenic forest roads to explore. Townsend, Lakewood, and Mountain are on the NSRT and provide unloading areas and services, including gas and food.

South and east of Mountain is “sand country.” Much of the riding here is on county forest land. There is an unloading ramp, parking, and restroom located at locator number 465.

You could spend all day riding the scenic loops in this area.

Further south of Hwy 32, the NSRT goes through more open farm country, passing Suring and Gillett, where ATV/UTV

•

•

parking areas and services are available. The NSRT ends south of Gillett, but many road routes are available to ride further south to Green Valley and beyond.

Our county map highlights several “preferred road routes” in blue connected to the NSRT. Using these routes makes riding to most other parts of the county easy. A QR code on the map lists the various riding opportunities and restrictions by the municipality.

Riding maps are free of charge by requesting them online at www.ocontocounty.org and at the many gas and food stops along the NSRT.

Favorite

Bloody Mary Bloody Mary. Love it or hate it, the Bloody Mary is usually a show-stopper of a drink, with adornments ranging from six-inch celery stalks to a full hamburger. Part of the fun when ordering a Bloody Mary is that everyone has their own special recipe or variation. Don’t drink? Bloody Marys are one of the easiest and best drinks to turn into a mocktail by simply omitting the alcohol.

Dockside Original Bloody Mary

In-house made mix, robust and flavorful, garnished with pickle spear, garlic green beans, pretzels, olives, mushrooms and brussel sprouts. Use original, cucumber, citron or peppar vodka. Make it loaded with extra smoked meat and cheese!

Sandtrap Bar & Grill

With the perfect amount of spice paired with the freshness of tomato juice, a kick from your alcohol of choice, and seasonings that blend in layers of flavor with every sip. The tower of garnishes won’t be needed for this Bloody Marys savory quality.

Wendt’s Sandbar Resort

Enjoy a delicious Bloody Mary on the deck while overlooking the lake! This classic brunch cocktail is the start to any perfect Sunday in the Northwoods. Topped with the most popular garnishes and a chaser of your choice.

Oconto Falls <<<<<

An energetic small city set in the idyllic countryside only 30 miles north of Green Bay, WI. The bustle and energy when you want it, and the solitude and fresh air of nature just steps beyond. Welcome to educational excellence to keep minds growing and parks, trails, and recreational facilities to keep the blood pumping. Shops, dining, services— everything you need—a stroll or golf cart ride away. Great amenities and small-town living in one very special place.

For more information on recreational, residential, or industrial opportunities, contact: Oconto Falls City Hall, 500 North Chestnut Avenue, Oconto Falls, WI 54154 (920) – 846-4505.

RECREATION <<<<<

Navigate miles of cross-country ski trails throughout the Machickanee County Forest. Numerous hills and curves of various slopes and lengths make this course a challenge for intermediate to advanced skiers.

Catch air at the Oconto Falls Tubing Hill, a nearly 900’ run that will surely exhilarate you and a rope to tow you back to the top. Bring a tube, warm winter clothes, and your desire to have a blast.

OCONTO FALLS
