Trail from Wittenberg to Birnamwood is grass covered crushed limestone. They do cut the grass, but not particularly bike friendly.
It’s a beautiful trail … well maintained! Quite a bit of shade for the most part we started In Fond du Lac off rolling meadows rd. Biked to the Horicon Marsh loop. I would recommend stopped at Katy’s Log Cabin in Oakfield for a good bloody and/or a great lunch !
Since the tornado in May 2025 there is two miles of trees down not far from Juneau. It is impassable. I rerouted from prospect onto Hwy 26 to Swan Rd.
I rode the entire trail from Seymour to New London and back in early June 2025. The trail is in super good shape and rideable with a road bike. There was a tree down across the trail about a mile west of Shiocton but easy to maneuver around. A really nice quiet ride in the countryside with no death machines. I rate it five stars.

I did the Wiouwash Trail between downtown Oshkosh and Hortonville over two days while visiting family in the Oshkosh area, and the conditions were pretty great. Prior to this past weekend, I had only ridden the southern half of this segment. If you enjoy a nice (mostly) gravel trail that is very flat, you should have a great time on this one. The trail only had one small sketchy area of about 100 yards just south of County Road II near the gravel yard. Other than that, it's a really smooth trail.
I road a Salsa Fargo on this visit with 29x2.2" tires, but have also done it on an All-City gravel bike with 700x38 tires. Both work just great, and I'm guessing you could easily get by with tires down to 32-ish mm.
There is a nice mix of fields and forested areas along with a few wetland locations. I happened to see quite a few deer, turkey Canada geese, two trumpeter swans and even a couple of Cooper's hawks hunting along the trail, one successfully.
It is probably also worth mentioning that I rode this trail on a Saturday and Sunday in good weather conditions and saw ZERO other bikers, which was more than a little surprising, but there were plenty of people walking dogs at various points along the trail.
Big thumbs up for this trail. Consider getting out to enjoy it if/when you are able.
It’s pretty scenic, especially with the leaf colors. Also pretty busy! There’s parking on both ends. A lot of the trail is grass, not even gravel. The spot where it’s asphalt is very minimal. It’s awesome you can stop and ride through Horicon Marsh! Lots of kitties on this trail ¿
Just kept riding. Gorgeous fall day. Started at northern trailhead. Passed a few walkers and one other biker the whole way to the end. As noted it has been extended well past 2.2 miles. Lovely scenery and immaculate trail surface with lots of peaceful farms. My new fave!
Loved this trail. Finished it on the 28th. Nicely maintained n beautiful scenery. Recommend highly.
Very Cute little trail to try out if you are doing the friendship trail. It definitely adds some light to the experience! Small easy ride
If you’re looking for a nice quiet ride either segment of the trail is great! The fondy-Rosendale was better than the second half of the trail in my opinion.
One of the best trails I have risen around here so far. Great distance that takes you through all sorts of different scenery and is easy to ride!
