Apparently there’s an initiative to repair the west half of this trail pending legislative approval. We rode this trail from Stillwater yesterday and the couple miles on either side of 694 was very hard on my bike and body with all the cracks. We turned back at north St. Paul - too bumpy -hopefully repairs can be done on this beautiful tree canopied trail.
The trail was in good shape from the refuge to the burned out bridge to the south. I liked the small wayside with a picnic table overlooking a small lake.
We biked this trail from downtown Chippewa Falls to Brunet Island State Park stopping in Cornell for lunch which has two bar & grills and one restaurant to choose from. The trail from Chippewa to Anson trailhead is basically riding through town and business park warehouses and I think we’re gonna skip this section next time. The Anson trailhead is probably the best place to park. As you ride north the trail becomes particularly beautiful from Jim Falls north. When you get to the end take the time to ride the big loop at Brunet Island State Park which is beautiful. The rail trail itself is straight long and flat-reduced to four stars due to sections of the trail being rough with many cracks, holes, etc.
Nice trail with pretty views and flat riding for the most part.
The Tank Creek Bridge is out due to a fire in May, 2025. We detoured onto Highway 35 (almost 5 miles) then to County XX (about 6 miles) to reach Midway and the trail. XX starts out paved then gravel and old asphalt until you near Midway. The trail is gorgeous! Might need to come during fall foliage.
I need to ride this trail every time I cycle to almost anywhere in Rochester. I consider that a great privilege. It is such a beautiful trail that all my rides are joyful rides. Despite it being in an urban setting, wildlife can be frequently spotted. I've seen White-tail Deer, Giant Snapping Turtles, Bald Eagles, Great Blue Herons, Wood Ducks. I've heard and seen many songbirds, and Chorus Frogs can be heard here in the spring. The Southern section is heavily wooded along the creek, the Northern Section travels along the creek through Bear Creek and Slatterly Parks. There are multiple underpasses so you do not have to cross traffic at all.
This is an essential connector trail from the Douglas State Trail to the Rochester Minnesota city trail system. It runs on the same Chicago Great Western Railway route as the rest of the Douglas State Trail with the exception of its two bridges, the Arianna Celeste MacNamara Memorial Bridge over US 14 and the CP Railroad, and the David Rossman Memorial Bridge over Valleyhigh Drive, and the short segment that is an access easement through the former IBM property. Little Thistle Brewery is connected to this trail. Please use extra caution when crossing 19th Street, there have been serious bike/car collisions there.
Started at north end, Pine Point Park and did 11 miles south to turn around. Couple of knucklehead kids, playing around between paved and equestrian trail, so was irritated by them, but the 3M (Monday midday mower) was worse. One worker with an oversized tractor to drag his mower around and litter the trail with multiple chewed up shredded branches for several miles was not fun. Washington County should be able to do a better job than that.
We ride the trail a few times a year. It's gotten so bumpy in places that it's not a comfortable ride anymore. Redwing to Welch bad. Cannon to Welch almost as bad. Could be one of the nicest trails in the state if the surface was overlayed.
Asphalt trail from Tarrant Park in Durand is rough with lots of twigs, grass growing between the asphalt, and repaired potholes. We went a little over 3 miles and turned around. It is mostly shaded. There are yellowflies. Would not do again.
Rode the Sam Morgan Trail today (8/3/25) from the I35E Bridge east to downtown St.Paul. The trail reconstruction is now complete! Barriers are only up for wrapping up some loose ends. Beautiful wide new asphalt trail to Randolph St. Enjoy!
