Events That Make the Ride Even Better

The Roseau Lake of the Woods Sportsman Club keeps the trails in top shape and hosts some of the region’s most exciting ATV events. This summer and fall, don’t miss:

  • The History Tour (July 26) – A self guided ride through the forest’s past, with stops at historic sites
