Fun smooth trail. Nicely paved. Great for biking. I would love to go back!!
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.
Can be windy on the bridges, don’t lose your head gear. I prefer to walk against traffic heading into Wisconsin from 36, and decline into Stillwater from Wisconsin.
We started in Almena on a gorgeous Tuesday in September. We were on a two up ATV. Went to Amery and back. Then did part of the extension in Barron Co to the 40 acre ATV Playground. Nice conditions on trail and groomed alongside. Pleasant varied scenery with several bridges. Lakes, rivers, bogs, woods, farmland. Can definitely understand why it is named Cattail trail! We stopped for a lunch in Turtle Lake at the Hotel Bar & Grill. Nice place right off the trail.
One of my favorite trails in Twin Cities. I start in Arden Hills at 35W and County I. I ride it till where it connects with Chaminade Golf Course and the Chain of Lakes Trail. Then I take city streets along Centerville lake till it connects with county park which brings you back to COL Trail. Very beautiful mix of country and suburbs. About 26 miles total. Signage not great but if you follow TrailLinks Map it is a piece of cake!
Must have been a resent storm took trees down had to manuver up and around down trees, 7 times.
This is a very well-maintained trail! The trail is crushed limestone and is suitable for all kinds of bikes, skinny road tires may have an issue with one section for about 1/8 of a mile where the trail gets a little rough. The locals are super friendly! The only con is the horsefly that seemed to trail us the whole way We will definitely go back.¿
We listened to previous reviews and picked "the cream of the crop" for our ride -- heading north out of Jim Falls to Cornell. Beautiful ride along the river and plenty of tree canopy. Trail in great shape. At Cornell, we decided to bike into Brunet State Park for a nice ride around the small island. We got back to Jim Falls and kept going, for a daily ride of about 33 miles. Highly recommend a tour of the Leinenkugel Brewery in Chippewa Falls, overnight lodging at the amazing Otter Creek Inn in Altoona, and dinner at Mona Lisa in Eau Claire -- the pizza and pasta were outstanding, and a great dinner after a great ride!
We rode this trail in late May 2024 and listened to the reviews, so I can only comment on the western part of this trail, from the Durand trailhead, riding about 6.5 miles to the intersection with the Red Cedar Trail and then we headed north on that trail. Other reviews say past the intersection, the trail needs work, so we followed that advice. The trail out of Durand is great -- paved and beautiful biking with tree canopy and the point where the trail intersects with the Red Cedar is clearly marked. The portion we did was great.
