We rode about 23 miles round-trip from the Waukesha trailhead on Oct. 12. The asphalt is in pretty good condition, with just a few bumps. However, when we got to the big curve around what used to be a field east of Dousman, we discovered that the field is now a massive construction site, and the trail is closed indefinitely, with no posted detour. We don't take our tandem on roads, so we turned around at that point. I assume that the trail is open west of the construction site, but don't know exactly where.
We didn't ride on the western portion of the trail that day, but it's one of our favorites, especially the part where you bike across the lake.
New trail, is very smooth. Crossing streets is safe. Slight uphill grade west to east which makes return trip west easy!
Ran parts of this trail recently. Easy paved trail through wooded area. Some shade in early morning hours.
Well maintained trail, no garbage or anything on the path! Was great for walking with a stroller there was one roughest patch we hit but that was it. Amazing views and a nice breeze from the water. Very active trail, pretty busy area.
I have ridden this from Brown Deer to just a bit past Port Washington and still need to do the whole thing. On the Soutern side where it starts its no different than say, Zipline or the Brown Deer connector. But once you start getting close to Cederburg, it starts to shine, with a dip in scenery when you transition through Grafton. Then the trail SHINES BRIGHT right into Port Washington. This and Bugline are probably my favorite rides in the greater Milwaukee area.
This trail is beautiful, it’s very smooth and works great for if you have a kiddo in a stroller! Lots of wildlife, we saw birds, bunny’s, squirrels, chipmunks, and 2 foxes!
Decent enough trail.. kinda rough with all the cracks. The name of the trail wasn’t lying, very urban indeed. Not much for views and quite a bit of road crossings. Seemed like a light incline the whole time. Hardly anyone waves or smiles back. In town trail is marked well.
Perfect biking day in September on an awesome trail. Started in Wales and biked to Sullivan and made return trip for total of 23 miles. First portion of trail was paved and remaining portion was well-maintained crushed gravel. Highly recommend this trail and will do again.
Nice trail that is maintained well.
Loved this trail. Finished it on the 28th. Nicely maintained n beautiful scenery. Recommend highly.
We absolutely love this trail. Many areas are shaded. Waukesha section is totally paved. It’s a gem!
