RASTA Trails
RASTA volunteers maintain over 60 miles of trail year round on properties owned by our partners, the Oneida County Forestry, Land and Recreation Department, and the School District of Rhinelander. We hope that you’ll enjoy the Northwoods and what it has to offer as much as we do.
*DISCLAIMER – Trails are subject to change! We will make every effort to have the most current maps on our site. Be aware of your surroundings and trail conditions. If trails are muddy, do not veer from the trail to avoid damage. Please enjoy responsibly.

So, what do we do?
From building trails to sponsoring events
Build Trails and Infrastructure
From our beginnings in 2004 RASTA has expanded the number of public trails, buildings and other infrastructure required to allow access for all who are interested in silent sport activities in our area.
Maintain trails for everyone’s use
The maintenance, improvement and grooming of trails is a vital part of enabling local residents and visitors to enjoy what the Northwoods has to offer. Each year our volunteers put in hundreds of hours maintaining and managing trails.
Organize Local Events and Clubs
From rallys and events to helping organize and maintain clubs like Little Bellas and our Rhinelander NICA affiliate team, RASTA helps promote a love for the outdoors for young and old to help keep the dream alive for generations to come.
How? Build community, donations and grants
We don’t do it all by ourselves of course. It’s a community effort supported by local residents, donations and when we can manage it, grant funding. All of this takes effort and organisation.
