Welcome to the premier system of off-road bike trails
in the Midwest, located in and around the beautiful
Chequamegon National Forest region of Northwest Wisconsin.


Welcome to the adventure of mountain biking in northwest Wisconsin. The Chequamegon Area Mountain Bike Association (CAMBA) off-road bike trail system consists of over 300 miles of marked and mapped routes through a wilderness of striking beauty and peaceful solitude. Area cyclists have created the CAMBA system to make this vast, unique area available to everyone. We hope you enjoy the riding and join with us in preserving this resource.

Wisconsin Mountain Biking Trails Camba

The CAMBA trails lie in and around the beautiful Chequamegon National Forest as well as in Bayfield and Sawyer County Forests - nearly a million acres in which to ride your fat tire bike. Of this, CAMBA has adopted an area of approximately 1,600 square miles. The system is divided into six clusters, each with one or more trail heads. An overview area map of the entire system indicating the location of each cluster as well as other ridable gravel and on-road paved routes is available. More detailed maps of each cluster with trail routes and navigational narratives are also available at area bike shops and chambers of commerce or directly from CAMBA.

Over 300 miles of mapped and marked trails... the BEST in the MIDWEST!

CAMBA's user-friendly system is designed to encourage off-road bicyclists to enjoy and explore the Chequamegon Area. Trail markings include frequent reassurance markers, intersection - "You Are Here" - markers with a corresponding land marker number on the map, and a sign board with an overview map, cluster map, and map dispenser at each trail head.

Each CAMBA cluster is comprised of 40 to 100 miles of trail. Trail clusters are located in the communities of Cable, Delta, Drummond, Hayward, Namakagon, and Seeley. The routes follow a variety of paths, Including logging roads, firelanes, snowmobile and ski trails, double track and extensive single track trails. The terrain lends itself to riders of all abilities, from beginners to seasoned fat tire experts. There are no paved bike paths in the system.

The Camba Mission: Supporting mountain biking education, advocacy,trail development and tourism in the Chequamegon Area

As you explore the CAMBA system, you will ride through rolling terrain dotted with lakes, rivers, streams, ridges, and meadows carved by glaciers during the last ice age. The entire system is heavily wooded and wildlife is plentiful. It's not unusual to sight deer, bear, porcupine, bald eagles, and a wide assortment of other forest animals. Wildflowers bloom from late May through the summer. From June through September, berry picking - wild strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries - can add a tasty diversion to your tour. The fall colors begin in late August and reach their splendid peak near the end of September and early October. Most trails in the system are ridable from May through November – almost 7 months of fat tire fun!

The several area bike shops located close to CAMBA trails offer bike sales and rentals, clothing, accessories, and repairs as well as trail riding recommendations. The Chequamegon Area welcomes visitors year round. Northwest Wisconsin is an outdoor recreation paradise – home of the American Birkebeiner, Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival, and the Firehouse 50 – and an area that welcomes off-road cyclists with open arms.
