We rode this trail in June last year on our e-bikes . Beautiful bridges and woods. My only advise is to use tick spray and don’t stop to long. The ticks were really bad . Use protection definitely.
This is an amazing biking and walking trail for all skill levels. I love walking this trail with my family and friends. My grandkids are all age ranges and even the littlest enjoys these walks. The flora and fauna are beautiful in all seasons and the gorgeous Wolf River runs next to it. I recently had a hip replacement and the trail is so well maintained I have no fear of hitting a snag and taking a tumble. The solitude of the forest, the bird songs and river sounds make this a treasure. I highly recommend all walkers and bikers to explore this treasure.
I tried out the trail in Watersmeet. Even my 700c by 45mm gravel tirees were no match for the loamy rutted ATV trail that was full of wash board bumps. The trail is so rough, even the local ATVers use the road instead wherever they can.
Pretty and peaceful. It’s paved in Phelps but turns to gravel not longer after. Shaded mostly. I’m sure the tamaracks are really pretty in Fall. The ice cream store in Phelps is open till mid Sept, awesome place to get ice cream n baked goods after your ride.
Unless you have a fat tire and don’t mind ATVs have at it. I tried with my gravel bike and turned back after about 50 feet.
Rode this trail on a perfect “biking weather” day! Trail is paved and well maintained. Parts are winding but fairly flat. Many shaded portions. Went across bridges. Stopped in Manitowish Waters at Dixie’s coffee shop - great place with excellent service. This trail is hard to beat!
Smooth asphalt, perfect amount of hills and curves, beautiful forests and lakes. Pure bliss.
A good deal of this stretch is on old county roads, and some are bumpy. Otherwise it’s beautiful and smooth like the rest of the Heart of Vilas trail.
This is an ATV trail which is NOT part of your description. I only went 20 miles on it and, even with the widest gravel tires the “rugged” disclaimer doesn’t suit the trail. There are huge holes left by atv tires. Most of the roads to cross were high up and I had to walk my bike up and down the sides of the intersection. The only people I met were on motor vehicles and I was covered in red dust by the time I returned to my car. Huge disappointment. Please fix your description ASAP!
