Pine Line Trail

Beautiful!

October, 2024 by the_masseuse

So yes, the gravel isn’t the greatest, the bigger the tire the better. It’s a bit chunky and loose..gets chunkier in Price county, seems to be kept up though? It’s so worth the extra effort come Fall. I had very little issues with my gravel bike. It’s super peaceful. No ATVs allowed, but horses are ¿. Seen quite a few grouse and there’s all new bridges throughout! It’s quite the beautiful trail and worth enduring the subpar gravel.

Three Eagle Trail

Rode the trail today and was totally impressed ! Truly a northern wilderness feel . Great crushed stone surface that is well maintained. I would highly recommend this trail. Can be riden with a road bike.

Three Eagle Trail

Loved It

August, 2024 by the_masseuse

Awesome trail! It was scenic, curvy, n hilly (small hills). Parked at Don Burnside park In Three Lakes, it’s right by the trail head. Make sure to bring money for Eagle River! The Osprey nest was cool to see and hear! I thought the three bridges were super cool too.

Bearskin State Trail

awesome trail

Great trail and had quite a bit of traffic.

Green Circle Trail

Amazing trail!

July, 2024 by jasonahyer

We rode the entirety of the trail in 2.5 miles and we’ve never seen a more clean, well-maintained, and marked walking/biking path. Top notch! Highly recommended!

Green Circle Trail

Spectacular trail

July, 2024 by mmaryandarturo

Lots of shade and curves. 90% on trail and 10% on non-busy roads. Trail well taken care of. Mostly limestone with many wooden bridges. A few busy intersections to cross though but all had traffic lights. Be careful though because some of trail is made for a single rider and not enough room for an oncoming biker to go by. A few speedsters on trail, so take those curves (some blind curves) slowly and carefully. Lots of absolute stunning scenery at every turn. I loved it, minus those speedsters¿¿¿¿¿

Green Circle Trail

Awesome trail - Well Marked

July, 2024 by t5n8nj6tsn

Absolutely the best marked trail I’ve ever been on. Lots of variety on this trail. Gravel, a few small hills, boardwalk sections, road parts, lake and river views. Beautiful Saturday so the trail was busy in spots, but not overly so in my opinion. Road the entire route with no issues until about 3 miles from the end there were a couple men and a woman gravel bikes that thought they were the only ones on the trail and came around a blind turn full speed completely on my side so I had to veer off trail.

Wiouwash State Trail

nice trail

Very enjoyable ride from Medina to Oshkosh put on 38 miles. Horse owners need to pick up the Horse **** !!! Very inappropriate

Three Eagle Trail

Rode this trail on June, 12, 2024

June, 2024 by jmziesmer

We parked at the Dairy Queen Trailhead in Eagle River. There are mile markers every 1/2 mile. We biked out 9.25 miles to the 3.5 mile marker. The bridges were well kept. Three paved hills on the trail were manageable by two retirees ( 67 & 68) on human power bikes. The trail is well groomed. It is crushed gravel. The off trail road portion is 1.5 miles with mild rolling hills the entire way. There is an outhouse about 3 miles from Eagle River and another about 8 miles from Eagle River. The path winds through the woods with 1-2 open areas. It is fairly level other than the three paved hills previously mentioned. There are gates at the crossroads the first 3 miles open enough for a bike to get through, but not enough for an ATV. There are no crossroads after about 5.5 miles when back on the trail from the road portion.

Pine Line Trail

Not really for bikes

September, 2023 by kylehdavison

I biked most of the length of the trail while on a long-distance tour. With 1.5" tires it was challenging to get through, and sometimes nearly impassable. The gravel shoulder of Highway 13 is easier traveling, honestly. The surface isn't crushed limestone. It's made of loose gravel and stones up to 1"—basically the same as the ag roads in the area. I would only recommend this if you are on an unloaded mountain bike or fat tire bike.

That said, it is flat, straight, and low-traffic in a beautiful area.

Wiouwash State Trail

Nice quiet trail

August, 2023 by crosscountry79

Went from Oshkosh to Hortonville for a total of 44 miles. Very good shape and little bike traffic. Really enjoyed the ride. Limited amenities along the trail.
