"Starting just NE of the 35E Bridge, you run up hill until you reach the %% Bridge and run back to the beginning. "

This is among the very finest trails in the Twin Cities area.
The views are spectacular and the trail surface is smooth and rut-free.

You'll hardly believe that you're near the center of a metropolitan area as you ride this smooth trail cut into the side of the bluffs at the confluence of the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers and extending through the marshlands in Lilydale and now out to end of Harriet Island (about 7 miles) in downtown St. Paul. Scenery is varied and beautiful all the way. Urban trails don't get any better than this one.
