55 MPH is the night time speed limit everywhere in Wisconsin.
ATV riders are reminded to check a current map to see if the trails they want to use are open to ATV’s. Please remember that the trail system would not be there without the cooperation of landowners, leaving a designated trail and/or snowmobiling on someone’s property without permission is TRESPASSING.
Light Utility Vehicles (LUV’s, UTV's or Side-by-Side Utility Vehicles) All Marathon County ATV and snowmobile trails are closed to LUV’s.
LUV’s are not all-terrain vehicles and do not meet the statutory definition for an ATV and are therefore not permitted on ATV trails. LUV's include vehicles with trade names such as; Gators, Mules, Prowlers, Rangers, Rhinos and Argo's.
Marathon County trails are not capable of safely accommodating these off-highway vehicles. Existing trails are not wide enough for two-way traffic with these larger vehicles.
The privately owned Embarrass River ATV Park located in Shawano County may offer a LUV riding opportunity.
