CFSP 2 is an easy out-and-back hike in Copper Falls State Park in northern Wisconsin, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. The route is about 4.4 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 149 feet, and it reaches a high point of 1,050 feet. The trail is also open to bikes, so riders can take it on a two-wheeled outing. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July highs around 77°F with lows near 55°F, while winter brings highs in the 20s and regular snow days from December through February. The trail is close to several other routes. CFSP 1 is about 1.2 miles away, and the Nordic Trail and the North Country National Scenic Trail (Wi) are both within about 1.7 miles. In winter, the Vahtera Trail is about 2.2 miles off and offers cross-country skiing.
