Trail from Wittenberg to Birnamwood is grass covered crushed limestone. They do cut the grass, but not particularly bike friendly.
We drove our bikes from the Manitowoc Maritime Museum up to the harbor in Two Rivers. The ride goes right along side a very busy highway next to many beaches of Lake Michigan. So for us the only downside if the ride was traffic noise which meant we had to shout any communication. But the views are very beautiful. We saw more pelicans in one afternoon than probably the entirety of our lives. There are beautiful flowers along the trail, restrooms and places to access the beaches. For us it was the ideal ride. The West of the Lake Garden that you pass by is a must stop location, it is free but park by the bike racks and no carry-ins allowed.
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.
Rode from Point Beach State Forest campground. Fun, hills and turns that are fun to navigate. Hard packed and well maintained trail.
We started at the Forestville Dam County Park and rode north to Sturgeon Bay. After a nice lunch we headed back to the park. Overall a 26 mile RT. The trail is in good shape with gravel and stone dust most of the way. Once near Sturgeon the trail follows roadside for 2-3 miles.
Fun ride through the woods. The trail is in much better condition than it was a few years ago. There are a lot of wooden board walks over the swampy areas. The trail is tough in spots, we were glad we had wider tires and stable bikes

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!
