Three Eagle Trail is an easy out-and-back hike in northern Wisconsin, about 0.6 miles from the town of Eagle River. The trail is 3.6 miles long, and the one-way elevation gain is about 11 feet, so the round trip adds up to a total of about 66 feet. The route is flat most of the way, with a gentle slope around the 1.6-mile mark that reaches a grade of about 4 percent. The high point is 1,648 feet, and the low point is 1,625 feet, so the trail runs essentially level from start to finish. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Eagle River put July highs around 78°F with lows near 54°F, while winter highs stay in the low 20s. The hike takes about an hour to complete, making it a short outing that pairs easily with other stops in the area. Eagle River - Florence District, a river fishing spot, is about a mile away. Within roughly 9 miles you'll find the Beaver Creek Hwt trail, the Sam Campbell Memorial hike and Laurel Lake Campground.
