Meet the Hodag

Welcome to
Rhinelander

Nestled in the heart of Wisconsin’s Northwoods, Rhinelander is home to outstanding options for outdoor recreation, friendly shops and restaurants, and lots of stories to share. You probably know our most famous tale–who hasn’t heard of the legendary Hodag, after all?–but Rhinelander is the perfect place to add a new chapter to your own story, too.

This summer, get outside and explore all that Rhinelander has to offer. Hike or bike scenic trails through lush forests, or spend the day on one of our many sparkling lakes. Paddle the Pelican or Wisconsin Rivers and take in the sights and sounds of nature. Explore the inviting shops and dining establishments downtown, or relax at a classic Northwoods resort while watching for local wildlife. Whether you’re seeking recreation, relaxation, or a bit of both, Rhinelander is the perfect place to write your next adventure. Plan your summer getaway today!
