from Medina to Allenville 05/19/26 there’s a section between county II and county T that’s very muddy especially by the gravel pit it’s always muddy and from Allenville to Oshkosh it’s a better trail
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.
Our walking club walks this trail frequently due to the scenery and easy walking to bridges that overlook Nine Mile Creek and the Wolf River. We have all ability levels ages 26 to 76. We’ve seen turtles, eagles, wild flowers and we can eat blackberries along the way. We love this trail and hope to keep it non motorized. It is a gem.
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.
Forgot.. it’s quite hilly! ¿ Curvy too.. The asphalt in Caspian is a bit rough but the trails are worth it!
I’m not sure why there’s no reviews for this trail, but it’s very pretty with lots of history. It seems short, but on the Caspian end it hooks up with Heritage Trail taking you to Pentoga Park. It’s just over 9 miles one way. Very scenic and pretty (especially in Fall) runs along the road and crosses it several times. Whole way is paved with shady spots and benches.
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.
