TRAIL NOTES, TIMM'S HILL SKI TRAIL
"The Timm's Hill Trail is groomed for both classic and skate skiing. It's groomed at minimum weekly and after each snowfall as necessary to ensure a quality skiing experience."
"From the south end, the first 3 miles of the trail start out fairly flat and are great for beginners and families. The next 7 miles get progressively hillier and offer more of a challenge for the intermediate to advanced skiers."

TRAIL NOTES, HIGH POINT SKI TRAILS
"Located near Timm's Hill, Wisconsin's highest geographical point, these 9 miles of trails traverse some of the most hilly terrain in the state. The winter landscape viewed from the top of the observation tower on Timm's Hill is very special. Forests of hardwood and hemlock border the full length of the trail. This is one of the finest trail systems around. Groomed for classic and skate skiing by the High Point Ski Club. Lighted night skiing is available for groups by appointment. The trail has three loops and joins the Timm's Hill Ski Trail which connects the High Point Ski Trail to the Rib Lake Area Ski Trails."

LAND OWNERSHIP
The Timm's Hill Trail is part of the US National Trail System. Except for the Timm's Hill County Park, the entire trail (THT) is on private property. The landowners have graciously allowed the trail to cross their property, so it's very important that all trail users respect the trail and the property it crosses.
