The Trappe River is a tributary of the Wisconsin River in Marathon County and Langlade County in the state of Wisconsin in the United States. Other spellings include Trapp and Trap.^[1] In Ojibwe it was known as Tah-so-so-win-ing Se-be.^[2] Its source is in the town of Ackley and its confluence with the Wisconsin is midway between Merrill and Wausau.

Historically the Trappe River was a rich source of pine timber for mills in Wausau, as well as for a mill at the mouth of the river.^[3]
