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.
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.
We rode this trail in a couple of segments over 2 days. The first stint was from the trailhead just east of St. Germaine, parked on the street, 40 miles r/t. 2nd day started from the Trailhead at M & N, headed towards west, another 40 Mile day. The trail was very scenic and passed through Sayner and Boulder Junction. We got a bit turned around at Boulder Junction and headed north for 2.5 miles but doubled back and kept headed west. Well maintained trail and amenities. Highly recommended.
So we stayed in Boulder Junction at the Big Bear Hideaway which I would highly recommend. What a wonderful place and in the middle of the bike path depending on how much of it you want to ride. We rode to Mercer day 1 which was about 25 miles one way and a wonderful ride, and the St. Germain on day 2 which is about the same distance one way. If you want to see beautiful country, wonderfully manicured trails and lots of places to stop and take a minute to take it all in or get a snack or just check out a body of water, this a great trail to do that. First time on this bike path and it will not be the last. Can’t wait to come again just for the beautiful scenery that is along the path.
Ignore warnings of it being too hard. Hills are very short and often loopy so you get momentum going down to go up. Lovely forest patches, quiet and pristine. Lake views have some picnic tables that are perfect. We started at Sayner
We found the trail start a little confusing because you are along the highway for a very short time. Then you are on a bike trail with some fun loopy hills. Beautiful forest trails, lake views, perfect quality trails.
We rode from Boulder Junction to Sayner. We had ice cream, which was delicious, and rode back to Boulder Junction. It was absolutely one of the best paved bike trail ever!!! Most of the trail is in the woods and we passed several beautiful lakes. The trail was not very busy. We started at 1:45. The ladies in the visitor center in Boulder Junction were very, very helpful.
