Start your new year health kick in the great outdoors on a walk at Rib Mountain State Park. Hike on your own on a marked trail from 10am to 3pm or join a guided hike from 11am-12:15pm to learn a bit about Rib Mountain. Meet at the Park Office (where the Park Rangers greet you) to start your hike.

​

The guided hike loop is approximately 1.5 miles long, is a narrow trail with some elevation, and is considered moderate in difficulty. The trail will be marked with lime green tape. There is no cost for the event but a park pass is required. This is a perfect time to purchase your new 12 month park pass.

​

Afterward come inside to warm up and enjoy some hot chocolate. Staff and volunteers will be available to answer questions. For more information call the Friends of Rib Mountain State Park at 715-680-9480, or the Park office at 715-842-2522.

Sorry to have to cancel but very hazardous icy trail conditions exist for the Jan 18 hike. Stay tuned for Feb 15 (and do your snow dance)... The Friends

​

The Friends of Rib Mountain State Park invite you to explore the Park on snowshoes or in boots by candlelight. The hike will begin and end at the Friends Gathering Space building just past the park office. Flashlights and headlamps are suggested.

​

We will have hot chocolate, hot cider, and roast marshmallows around the campfire. There is no cost to participate but donations to cover our costs are always appreciated. A Park vehicle sticker (daily or annual). Parking is limited so please consider carpooling if possible.
