This is a great trail - it has a nice mix of access points, city parks, great scenery, urban infrastructure, and even circles the airport. I always appreciate these contrasts as an avid user of urban trails and recognize the work and commitment of the community to support a diverse trail that traverses many parts of the city. We were just stopping through for a night on our way home from a road trip and saw this on the map so decided to stretch our legs before getting back in the car. It did not disappoint!
Short but scenic ride. Added on to the Luverne trail for a longer ride. Don’t forget to see the Nutcrackers!
Route needs updating. It says it starts at 8th Ave but it’s really 9th Ave. Parked at business after asking for permission. Route no longer crosses Highway 60 as shown. It goes along the highway and up to 170th and then across and down the other side of 60. The paths up and down these embankments are not for the faint of heart - very large rocks. The trail itself was fun and nicely mowed - just watch out for the badger and gopher holes!
Blue Mound Trail has been newly resurfaced in 2025. A very picturesque ride along the cliff line and into the state park campground. This connects to the city of Luverne which has trail that runs along perimeter of town and also Ashby Trail. Totally worth the trip as you can ride more than 20 miles round trip when combining all. Take 16 brewery is located adjacent in Luverne for a cold drink and a pizza!!
Trail has some really pretty views of the prairie and wooded areas near rock river. Nice and short, out and back memorial trail. I enjoyed it.
We rode from Yankton Park and went the opposite direction of the Falls Park and so glad we did. There is some trail detours as they are working on sections which did create a little confusion but the app helped. I would also say that there are asphalt trails which we all know end up with cracks to contend with. This is the route to take so as you get to the switchbacks prior to Falls Park it is down hill and a fun ride. The rest of the trail was awesome, more sunny than shaded but would definitely recommend as worth your time. It’s like a sightseeing trail with golf courses and zoos and tons of parks.
While the part of the trail on the Woodstock is freshly paved, the first 10 miles or so from Pipestone to the east are in pretty rough shape. You will damage your bike if you're not careful and paying attention to the worst of the cracks. Trails like this are what make me appreciate the crushed limestone approach to trail building.
This is the back bone of Sioux Falls ¿ Plus falls park. Lol Had a family ride enjoyed it very much Other than it was a hot day Easy ride if you go the right direction One hill and it’s not all that bad Seen lots of wild life along the river You ride all the way around town but you really don’t seen much of it which to me make it very nice Nice rest areas with water
This is a great small town bike trail! Wide enough in most places to accommodate multiple riders meeting. A bridge over or tunnel under Highway 75 would be a nice touch as that is a very busy state highway. Would like to see it connect to a nearby community someday soon.
June 1st started at Woodstock MN , brand new paved trail going east tward Pipestone. First 2.5 miles perfect new surfaced trail, second 2,5 miles not new asphalt but smooth. Then the next 5 miles to Pipestone Wes asphalt with cracks all the way. Expect your bike to have rattles and your perineum to be jolted on this section. From Pipestone rode brand new concrete sidewalk trail surrounding the National Monument. Beautiful. Back to Woodstock, 19 miles total. Parked at City Park, one room bathroom, very clean. Bar and grill downtown recommended by a friend looked nice,
I rode the trail yesterday with my bride of 42 years, Kari and dear friends Coleen and Steve, who experienced the trail on their e-bikes. We started at Falls Park and rode the main loop in a counter clockwise direction. The trail is in great condition and I was amazed to find no at grade crossings on the entire loop (save for a temporary crossing due to construction). The trail shows all that Sioux Falls has to offer and the segments meandering through the city's many parks were particularly enjoyable! I highly recommend this trail!!
