Wolf Run is a cross-country ski route in northern Wisconsin, about 3 miles from Rhinelander. It is a short, out-and-back trip of roughly half a mile, with a high point of about 1,687 feet and a low of about 1,660 feet. The climb is flat, with a total gain and loss of about 16 feet, and the steepest stretch comes early on, at about 2% grade. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Rhinelander show January highs around 21°F with lows near 2°F, while March runs warmer, with highs around 38°F. The station sits a few hundred feet lower than the route's high point, so temperatures on the trail run slightly cooler. Several other cross-country ski routes lie within a short distance. Spruce Hollow, Glacial Crossover and Ram Pike are each about 0.1 mile away, and North Loop is about 0.2 mile off.
