Thereâs a special kind of magic in the Northwoods when October rolls inâthe air turns crisp, the trees explode in shades of orange and gold, and the reflection of the full moon ripples across the lakes like something straight out of a storybook. And when Halloween season hits? Minocqua transforms into a cozy, slightly spooky playground filled with hayrides, haunted trails, and the kind of small-town charm that makes you want to throw on a flannel, load up the Ford Explorer, and go exploring.
đ˛ LAMBOO Haunted Trails
Letâs start with something thrillingâthe LAMBOO Haunted Trails, happening this year on Saturday, October 25th from 4 PM to 8 PM. This unique event turns Minocquaâs scenic mountain biking trails into a haunted forest. Ghostly figures lurk behind pine trees, flickering lanterns line the path, and the crisp Northwoods air keeps your adrenaline pumping. Bring your bike, your courage, and maybe an extra flashlight. Itâs spooky fun for both families and thrill-seekers.
Local Tip: Bring the kids early for the less-scary âdaylight ride,â then circle back after dark if you dare. The Ford Broncoâs cargo space is perfect for tossing in the bikes and helmets after your adventure.
đŹ Trick-or-Treating in Downtown Minocqua
Nothing beats old-fashioned trick-or-treating, and downtown Minocqua keeps the tradition alive. On October 31st, from 4 PM to 7 PM, local shops and restaurants open their doors for little ghosts and goblins. The historic downtown strip glows under streetlamps, and businesses hand out treats while spooky tunes drift through the air.
Pro Tip: Park your Ford Escape near the Minocqua Brewing Company lot and stroll through downtownâitâs compact, fuel-efficient, and perfect for tight parking spots during busy events.
đ Campanile Center Fall Performances
When the night gets too chilly for outdoor fun, head indoors to the Campanile Center for the Arts, where fall performances range from local theater to live musicâsometimes even featuring Halloween-themed shows. The atmosphere is cozy and community-focused, offering a dose of Northwoods culture between candy runs and haunted hikes.
