Really nice trail but walker be careful. So many rude riders not letting you know they are coming behind you. 3 simple words “on your left”. When riding I always give walkers and other riders plenty of warning when passing, plus always slowing down.
Rode this trail end-to-end yesterday. The asphalt is in like-new condition and the scenery is beautiful. While we greatly prefer shaded trails in the hot summer, the lengthy stretches of sun on this trail were tolerable due to temps in the high 70’s and a light breeze. Can’t wait to ride this again in the fall. I’m sure the autumn colors near the northern half will be spectacular.
Trail from Wittenberg to Birnamwood is grass covered crushed limestone. They do cut the grass, but not particularly bike friendly.
It’s a beautiful trail … well maintained! Quite a bit of shade for the most part we started In Fond du Lac off rolling meadows rd. Biked to the Horicon Marsh loop. I would recommend stopped at Katy’s Log Cabin in Oakfield for a good bloody and/or a great lunch !
The trail is well maintained and an easy ride. It follows the terrain. The views are beautiful. Lots of families either walking or biking.
Since the tornado in May 2025 there is two miles of trees down not far from Juneau. It is impassable. I rerouted from prospect onto Hwy 26 to Swan Rd.
I enjoyed the south half but the part through the city was not well or marked at all. Route would be vastly improved with some signage.
Rode out 6+ miles from the south end. Apparently they are going to build a bridge across the river sometime soon..Noticed a sign along the trail, that stated you need a permit to ride the trail?! Nice along the river, then out into open fields.
I did the Wiouwash Trail between downtown Oshkosh and Hortonville over two days while visiting family in the Oshkosh area, and the conditions were pretty great. Prior to this past weekend, I had only ridden the southern half of this segment. If you enjoy a nice (mostly) gravel trail that is very flat, you should have a great time on this one. The trail only had one small sketchy area of about 100 yards just south of County Road II near the gravel yard. Other than that, it's a really smooth trail.
I road a Salsa Fargo on this visit with 29x2.2" tires, but have also done it on an All-City gravel bike with 700x38 tires. Both work just great, and I'm guessing you could easily get by with tires down to 32-ish mm.
There is a nice mix of fields and forested areas along with a few wetland locations. I happened to see quite a few deer, turkey Canada geese, two trumpeter swans and even a couple of Cooper's hawks hunting along the trail, one successfully.
It is probably also worth mentioning that I rode this trail on a Saturday and Sunday in good weather conditions and saw ZERO other bikers, which was more than a little surprising, but there were plenty of people walking dogs at various points along the trail.
Big thumbs up for this trail. Consider getting out to enjoy it if/when you are able.
Super nice trail! I think I counted 2 cracks. Well marked. Feel free to ride your road bike. Parked on the north end. There are about five parking spots there. Only downside is that it’s quite open which can expose you to wind
I rode today from twining park to the town of Shultz. About 7 miles. The trail was in good shape. It was soft which made the ride a little more work. They just had a lot of rain though. I will come back and ride a different section soon. 3/25/25
