Trails matter.

For nearly 20 years, the Three Eagle Trail Foundation has connected the towns of Three Lakes and Eagle River, Wisconsin through the development and maintenance of a 12.7-mile bike and pedestrian trail.

The Foundation will be undertaking a major trail resurfacing project during the summer of 2025. The project will include adding several inches of new surface material to the section between the Hwy 45 parking lot and the Sundstein Road trailhead (see map below).

This project is made possible through a Recreational Trails Program (RTP) grant from the Wisconsin DNR, statewide businesses, and people like you! Join the effort by donating to the resurfacing project and help preserve the Three Eagle Trail for the future. All donations are tax-deductible.

Join us on July 19th from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm at Don Burnside Park in Three Lakes for our Fundraising Kickoff Event. There will be food, music, games, and fun for the whole family as we celebrate the Three Eagle Trail and raise money for our project. There will be a basket raffle with donations from local vendors, a silent auction for an e-bike (CITY SLICKER by Excel Power Bikes), and more!
