Central Lakes State Trail

Great way to explore

There are so many more opportunities, would be nice to know who runs this program.

Agassiz Recreational Trail

Fertile to Twin Valley

February, 2025 by mattsperling

I Biked the trail from Fertile to Twin Valley June 14th 2024. It is a very nice peaceful ride but be ready for your legs to burn. The surface was loose and sandy in a majority of spots. If the path had a harder pack surface like crushed limestone or like surface this would make for a great trail system that could extend as far north as Crookston.

Heart of the Lakes Trail

close to Hwy

September, 2024 by fayeanhorn

We didn’t ride too far as wind was kicking our butts. Review is for the eastern part of the trail. The Perham & Macdonald lake sections. The trail is very smooth and you do go by some lakes. But no tree cover so you are really exposed to the wind. The entire trail is close to the highway sometimes only a few feet. With so many other beautiful trails in MN will not be back to this one. I will take a few bumps on the trail to have some tree cover and peaceful atmosphere.

Central Lakes State Trail

Diamond in the rough

Trail needs some tlc—new paving and not just bandaids. Some of the vistas are truly beautiful and the trail can be fun to ride. Did the entire trail south to north.

Heartland State Trail

A perfect ride

August, 2024 by 8xshdh9bmw

We had a great day on the trail, from Dorset to Nevis. Exactly the type of ride we needed after our other summer activities including walks and swimming. Stopped at the Iron Horse for a late lunch. Met fellow travelers, including a woman doing a 100 mile bike trek!

Central Lakes State Trail

OK ride

Today we drove to Alexandria, picked up the trail there and rode east to where it connects with the Lake Wobegon Trail. Again, bumpy ride.

Central Lakes State Trail

OK ride

August, 2024 by mwskibike

First time on this trail. Started from Ashby resort, just east of Ashby, Minnesota and rode west for 8 miles. Like that the trail is wide so you can safely ride next to someone and talk. However, there are stretches that are rough from cracks in pavement and root heaves. Sunny Saturday afternoon and only saw 6 other people of the trail. I did ride over a snake that I didn't see in time.

Best trail ever . Clean

Central Lakes State Trail

Nice ride for all

September, 2023 by thekauz

The leaves were turning colors and the weather cool when I rode. Black top trail in good condition. It’s a combination of open areas and rides through tree lined sections. It would be a great ride year round for the property prepared.

Heartland State Trail

Love this Trail!!

September, 2023 by mcmlrj

This is a beautiful, easy , fun trail! There are many great spots to stop and explore or eat. Dorset and Nevis are great places to eat along the route. The Northern end of the trail follows along Leech Lake which was very beautiful too! I would highly recommend it!

Heart of the Lakes Trail

New bike trail! Nicely done

September, 2023 by mcmlrj

There is one section not completed from Highway 108 through Maplewood State Park. It will be really nice when that is completed. Few sections where the terrain is difficult but for the most part very nice trail!

Heartland State Trail
