Dakota Rail Regional Trail

Beautiful water views thru the woods … ¿

July, 2025 by jeanne.eggert

Beautifully paved bike trail over the waters and thru the woods. We rode from St. Bonafacious to Wayzata and back. Very smooth and cool morning ride. This trail is very popular as we met up with numerous walkers and bikers alike. Highly recommend especially if you’re a beginner or a fan of a level trail without hills.

Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail

Wonderful ride! Highly recommend

June, 2025 by jeanne.eggert

What a treat this trail was! An unbelievable amount of boardwalk riding, through the trees, over the marshes, over highways and river. It definitely is a hidden gem and one you should check out! We thoroughly enjoyed this one. ¿

Gandy Dancer Trail (Southern Section)

Trail surface Luck to Frederic

May, 2025 by ajbenoit17

The trail between Luck and Frederic is all loose gravel and rocks. Very soft. Maybe okay for a fat tire bike. May 29, 2025.

Bryant Lake Regional Park Trail

Icons dominate the screen

April, 2025 by jamberg565

The trail name icons take too much room on the screen and cause the screen to jump and recenter.

Hiked the entire south side and north on the right side of the park. Many different birds calling and singing. Oddly still no peeps from frogs or roads. Found some junk off the horse trail, crew needs to clean it up

Matthew Lourey State Trail (Willard Munger State Trail)

We rode from Hinkley to Duluth one day, stayed in Duluth 2 nights then returned back to Hinkley. This trail is very pretty and we appreciated the 2 areas with park pavilions next to the trail that included electricity and bathroom options.

Dakota Rail Regional Trail

A great fall ride

October, 2024 by rmtrsws6g4

Rode this from Wayzata to Waconia and back. Well maintained, great views of a variety of environments (prairie, suburban, marsh, lake). I would recommend taking a side tour of the Six Mile Marsh Prairie Trail. Well worth the detour.

Dakota Rail Regional Trail

Rode for the first time from Wayzata to St. Bonifacious and back. One small detour but it was well marked. Low traffic and lovely views of the lakes and fields. Would recommend a bite to eat at the Bistro in St. Bonifacious.

It’s the trail transition on Hwy 62 that had been my problem.
