What’s better than cruising over acres of open lake space? Absolutely nothing. And lucky for you Lake Wissota is 6,000+ acres of ground to cover on your snowmobile. If the lake isn’t what you’re looking for, explore Lake Wissota State Park‘s five miles of pristine trails that link to the extensive Chippewa County snowmobile trail system. If you get hungry and need to refuel for an afternoon of riding, stop at one of the many restaurants situated on the banks of Lake Wissota.
