New Firewood Rules

No wood from Minnesota or more than a 25-mile radius
of the Trade River Campground is allowed. Click here for more information.

However, the Friends are selling firewood at the campground and all proceeds are used to improve you riding experience at Governor Knowles State Forest.

Parking Area Improved

Thanks to a very generous gift from Dresser Traprock and your ongoing support of the Friends, we have improved your experience at the North Horse Trail Parking Area
. Click here for more information.
New Mounting Blocks

In response to suggestions made at our Annual Member meeting, we have added mounting blocks at the Trade River Day Use Area and Campground. Now you can get on your horse without climbing a tree or standing on your bumper. Giddy-up!

Ride, ride and ride some more.  That's what the Equestrian Friends of Governor Knowles State Forest love to do.  The Forest’s more than 40 miles of soft trails are the perfect place to do it as they weave through fragrant pine forests, cross bubbling creeks and scale scenic river overlooks.

Located along the St. Croix River in northwestern Wisconsin, the Forest is truly a unique resource.  Our members are passionate about enhancing this magnificent resource and preserving it for generations of riders to come.

Please take a look at all of the information we’ve collected about the Forest, such as Trade River Campground, Trail Descriptions, Trail Maps and Bug Reports.  Then come ride your heart out and Become a Member today.
